- Wash and peel the vegetables. Cut the potatoes into thin strips or cubes — whatever you prefer, just keep them on the smaller side — and grate the carrot so it cooks faster. Finely chop the onion. Put the vegetables in a pot, season with salt, cover with water, and set them to cook. Make the meatballs from store-bought or homemade ground meat; a beef-and-pork blend gives the richest, most flavorful soup. Crack an egg into the meat, add salt and ground black pepper to taste, mix, and roll into small balls with hands dampened in cold water. Once the broth comes to a boil, drop in the meatballs one at a time. Cook for about 20 minutes. Add the vermicelli, stir, and cook for another 20 minutes or so. Add the bay leaf, taste, and adjust the seasoning if needed. Turn off the heat and let the soup rest, covered, for a few minutes. Serve sprinkled with fresh herbs. Enjoy!
