【Henan】Boiled Shrimp and Meatballs in Vegetable Soup

Overview

We like to make vegetable soup here, which is to stew various vegetables that can withstand stewing into the soup stock, and then add a few meatballs into it. The soup that comes out has the fragrance of vegetables, and the stewed vegetables are very soft and the meatballs are also very tender. It is suitable for the elderly and children. The vegetable soup I stewed today uses winter melon and carrots, and the meatballs use shrimp meatballs. The combination of the freshness of the shrimp and the slight sweetness of the carrots makes the stewed vegetable soup even more delicious. This dish is specially made according to the taste of my mother-in-law. The old man has bad teeth, so it is not difficult to eat this, and she also likes the taste. As a home chef, the main consideration when cooking is the needs of your family. If they like to eat, it will be successful.
