| 1. Place the onion and garlic in the food processor or blender and puree. Note to cooker- I found that when I tried to do this, it didn’t puree very well. Even when I left the onion and garlic in chunks in the meatballs, at the end, you don’t notice. | 2. put the puree in a mixing bowl with the meat, cinnamon, allspice, salt, pepper, 1 beaten egg and bread crumbs. Mix together by hand and set aside. | 3. In a large pot, bring the meat stock to a boil. Add the rice and reduce the heat to a gentle boil | 4. Have a bowl of cold water to you while you work. Wet your hands and divide the meat mixture into 6 or 8 parts and shape each into a large meatball. Put them into the simmering liquid and partially cover the pot. | 5. Cook 1 ½ - 1 ¾ hours. NOTE: Doesn’t need to be that long. I cooked it for an hour … a little over an hour and the rice and the meat were cooked. Also another thing- check the soup every once in a while because I found that the liquid evaporates easily and I had to keep adding water so the soup wouldn’t burn. | 6. During the last 15 minutes of cooking, beat the lemon juice with the remaining eggs. Pour one ladle of the stock into the egg/lemon mixture. | 7. Reduce the heat under the soup to the lowest simmer and slowly add the egg/lemon mixture. | 8. Stirring constantly, allow the soup to thicken but make sure the liquid doesn’t come to a boil or the eggs will cook and they will form clumps in the soup. | 9. When the soup is thickened, remove from heat. | 10. And then you serve. enjoy. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
