Postup

Krok za krokom

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, grated onion, flour, salt, and black pepper for the meatballs.

    Približne 5 min

    Poznámka kuchára: Ensure the grated onion is squeezed of excess liquid before adding to the meat mixture.

  2. 2

    Mix well until just combined, then form into small, marble-sized meatballs and set aside.

    Približne 10 min

    Poznámka kuchára: Wet your hands slightly to prevent the meat mixture from sticking.

  3. 3

    Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

    Približne 1 min

  4. 4

    Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

    Približne 7 min

  5. 5

    Stir in the turmeric and cook for another minute until fragrant.

    Približne 1 min

  6. 6

  7. 7

    Pour in the pomegranate juice and water, then bring the mixture to a boil.

    Približne 5 min

  8. 8

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 20 minutes to allow the split peas to partially cook.

    Približne 20 min

  9. 9

    Gently add the prepared meatballs to the simmering soup.

    Približne 2 min

    Poznámka kuchára: Add them one by one to prevent them from sticking together.

    Stir in the chopped fresh mint, cilantro, parsley, and rinsed rice.

    Približne 1 min

  11. 11

    Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through, the split peas are tender, and the rice is soft.

    Približne 25 min

    Poznámka kuchára: Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.

  12. 12

    Približne 2 min

    Poznámka kuchára: The amount of sugar needed will depend on the sweetness of your pomegranate juice and personal preference.
