Meatballs and Noodle Soup

Almondigas is a soup consisting of meatballs and misua. Misua is thin salty Chinese noodles made from wheat flour which is cooked quickly. If misua is not available, it can be replaced with Japanese somen noodles, because the two noodles are very similar. Like a healthy soup, almondigas are truly a filling meal.

INGREDIENT

1 lb (450 g) lean pork
2 green onions, finely chopped, plus more for garnish
1 egg, beaten
3 tablespoons (25 g) of all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 onion, chopped
8 cups (1.9 L) chicken stock
1 tbsp (15 ml) fish sauce
2 ounces of misua noodles, Japanese somen noodles, capellini noodles or angel hair paste

PREPARATION

In a large bowl, mix beef, onions, eggs and flour. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until evenly mixed, then form into 2.5 cm meatballs.
Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and onion. Saute until the onions begin to soften, about 2 minutes.
Add fish stock and sauce, and bring to a boil. Add the meatballs to a boiling stock and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked. Add misua noodles and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Season with fish sauce (or salt) and pepper, to taste.

Garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot.

Tamarind and Savory Sea Soup

This sea soup has many variants, depending on the fruit that is served. Commonly used spices are sampaloc (tamarind), kamias (bilimbi), bayabas (guava), and calamansi (lime) - fruit grown on the ground Unfortunately, these fruits are hard to find in the country where I once lived. Therefore, I remade this dish using lemons which are easy to find throughout the year. This soup has a bold taste: sour, salty, slightly sweet, spicy, and umami. For more flavorful broth, save the clams and shrimp or shrimp head itself, bring to a boil for at least 10 minutes, then strain. INGREDIENTS Gremolata (optional): 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 4 small cloves garlic, finely chopped 1 bunch of flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped Grated zest of 2 lemons Tamarind : 4 cups of seafood broth or water with dissolved fish broth cube 1 lemon juice, plus more to taste 1 teaspoon granulated sugar 2 shallots, chopped 4 tomatoes, chopped 1 pound of fish fillets (such as salmon, monkfish or cod), cut into 4 par...
