Meatballs with Patula and Misua Soup

Meatballs with Patula and Misua Soup. Here is a delicious meatballs soup. I used pork that is finely diced instead of the ground pork that is sold at meat shops for my meatballs. This will give more chunkiness to the resultant meatballs. The meatballs are then seared or quickly stir-fried to brown the outer skin of the meatballs and sealing all the flavors inside.
