  • Prep the ingredients. Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes or sticks. Finely chop the onion. Grate the carrots, preferably on a coarse grater. Put the ground meat in a bowl, add the breadcrumbs, pepper, and salt, and mix well. Now shape the meat into meatballs. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the potatoes, onion, carrots, salt, and pepper, and bring back to a boil. When it boils, gently lower in the meatballs — off a spoon, so the hot water doesn't splash. Cook for 15–20 minutes. About 5 minutes before everything's done, add the bay leaf. Tastes vary — some people add a little rice or vermicelli. You can also mix grated onion and finely chopped boiled eggs into the meat. Add sour cream and herbs to the finished soup.
