Start by adding the meatball ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well to combine everything. It will look like a giant meatball.
Using your hands, form meatballs. About 1 1/2” in diameter. Place in the fridge until ready to use.
Add the tomato sauce ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
Heat oil in a large stock pot, add the tomato sauce, and cook for 5 minutes.
After it has been cooking for 5 minutes, gently and carefully add the meatballs. One by one.
Once you have added the veggies, be sure to give everything a gentle stir. Be very careful not to break up the meatballs.
You might see this soup served in a bowl with extra rice. A squeeze of lime and chopped cilantro add an extra touch of brightness to this dish.
