Albonigas Soup
« on: February 18, 2011, 08:29:31 PM »
This soup is from some of my hispanic/native american heritage....

4 C beef stock
1lb of ground beef
1/3 C chopped onion
1/2 C chopped or sliced carrots
1/2 flour
1/2 C white rice
1 sm can whole peeled tomatoes
1 tsp of dried mint leaves
I egg
1 tsp of red chili flake
Place large porclain dutch oven soup pot or your favorite pot on with the beef stock.. Old school was an oxtail or neck bone to make a good stock. On this side of the map these "cheap cuts" ain't cheap anymore with the influx of supply & demand...
Knorrs bullion cubes (2) will do it.
Season ground beef with garlic salt & pepper adding in flour, egg, mint leaves and 1/4 C of rice to make your meatballs.
You should get around 20 or so. Simmer meatballs, onion & sqeeze in stewed tomatoes with juice added in for approx. 1/2 hr.
Add in remaining rice, chili flake & carrots and simmer another 1/2 hr to 45 min.
Serve with warm tortillas or crackers...
Personally I like it the next day as the soup is thicker with the rice  ;D

Yeah, used to buy chicken wings cheap for chicken and noodles, now they can be higher than good steak.  BTW chicken wings are kind of dumb to cook up as hot wings at that price, thighs with drumsticks on them are far cheaper and much meatier. ;D

Price of chicken I eat little anymore anyway, when beef is cheaper that's what I get.

A little goes along ways, although this is mighty good:



Braised chicken with carmelized onions.  Made it once as an experiment, was pretty good, but not really a dish for making for large crowds, sucks up too much oven space.

I guess for one of the smaller groups I could cook it in a couple deep ovens and stransfer it to the 20 inch skillet to brown the meat the second time and carmelize the onions:

One of my blacksmith friends made me a stand for it and now I don't have to balance it over logs:

I got a nice neat new folding stool to use instead of my plack chairs.  I can walk all day long, just can't stand long and squating is really bad.  It's only worse when I've been liftin' iron for a few days.  Hey that gives me an idea, Delmonico's Gym "Pay me money and I'll teach you to lift iron." ;)

I think your soup recipe got hijacked.  I was going to report it to the moderator but got this message:

You can't report your own post to the moderator, that doesn't make sense!  ;)

I will try that soup sometime though.
