Add the garlic, oregano, and cumin, then cook, stirring for 30 seconds. Remove from the heat, then transfer 1/2 cup of the mixture to a large mixing bowl; set aside the skillet with the remaining mixture. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Into the bowl with the onion mixture, stir in the panko and 1/2 cup water. Let stand until the panko softens, about 5 minutes. Using a spatula, mash the mixture to a paste, then add the beef, 1/2 cup cilantro and 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Mix well, then divide into 16 two-tablespoon portions, rolling each into a ball and placing on the prepared baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the oven to 450 F with a rack in the middle position.
• Uncover the meatballs and roast until browned and the centre reaches a temperature of 160 F, 12-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.

ALBONDIGAS AL CHIPOTLE (MEATBALLS IN CHIPOTLE SAUCE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450.
• Make meatballs:.
• Combine all meatball ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well with hands (or a wooden spoon if you must, but using your hands works better and is much more fun!) Form into medium-large balls (I usually get 15), and place in a 13x9 baking dish. Bake until browned, 15 minutes. Drain excess fat from dish.
• While meatballs are baking, make sauce:.
• Combine sauce ingredients in blender and process to a smooth puree.
• Pour sauce over browned meatballs and return to oven for another 20 minutes, or until the sauce is thickened. We like the sauce nice and thick, but if you prefer a thinner sauce, add a little chicken or beef broth to it.

ALBONDIGAS (MEXICAN MEATBALL SOUP) RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground turkey, rice, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin, and cilantro and gently mix together until well combined. Use an ice cream scoop or your hands to shape the meatballs into 1½-inch balls, about the size of a golf ball. You should have about 25 meatballs.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the canola oil and warm for about 1 minute. Working in batches, add the meatballs in a single layer and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer to a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining meatballs.
• Make the soup: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the onion to the pot, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom with a wooden spoon. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 2-3 minutes. Add the cumin, oregano, and ancho chile and continue cooking for another minute, until fragrant.
• Add the carrots, celery, potatoes, salt, pepper, tomatoes and their juices, and stock and stir to combine. Cover the pot and let the soup simmer for 30-35 minutes, until the vegetables have softened.
• Add the meatballs and cook, covered, until cooked through, 15-20 minutes.
• Season the soup with salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste.
• Immediately ladle the soup into bowls, discarding the ancho chile. Top with avocado, radishes, cilantro, queso fresco, serrano peppers, and a generous squeeze of lime juice. Serve with hot sauce on the side.
• Enjoy!

ALBóNDIGAS AL CHIPOTLE (SPICY MEATBALL SOUP)

Steps:

• For the broth: On medium heat, in a pot, saute the onion, garlic and cumin seeds in the olive oil until the onions are translucent. Add tomatoes and continue to simmer slow and low. It's ready when the tomatoes are cooked down and it looks saucy. You may need to add a little broth. At this point, either transfer tomato sauce to a blender jar with the chipotles, or if you have a hand-held blender, throw the chipotles in the pot and blend there with a little broth. When your tomato sauce is smooth, transfer back to the pot, add all of the broth, carrots, potatoes and fresh herbs, S&P, cover, and bring to a steady simmer for about 20 minutes or so. (I like to add zucchini, and kale if I have it. Add it a little later though.)
• Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine ground beef and pork, rice, oregano, egg, S&P with your hands. It's fun. Form into balls, size is up to you. I wouldn't recommend larger than baseball sized or they might fall apart. Gently add the meatballs to the soup one at a time. When they are good and buoyant and firm, they're done. Serve in deep bowls. Have fresh, chopped white onion, cilantro, lime wedges and chopped avocado for a garnish, and of course, plenty of warm corn tortillas! ¡Buen provecho!
