Misua and Meatball Soup is my version of albondigas. I am using thin flour noodles called misua or miswa and I also added loofah gourd, which is known as “patola” in the Philippines. This is delicious treat that you will enjoy either for lunch or dinner.

Misua Soup with Meatballs

I also like having misua with sardines in can. It works with both Spanish style sardines and the one in tomato sauce. I find it best when I use lots of garlic and if I add a bit of lemon or lime.

When I am busy, I purchase ready to cook meatballs in the supermarket or in Ikea. This saves me some time in preparing this meatball soup. I can also do quick dishes such as spaghetti and meatballs or sweet and sour meatballs.

Are you ready to cook your Misua and Meatball soup? I know that you can do it easily because this is just a simple process. You should remember though that the flour noodles quickly absorb liquid. You might need to add more water at some point.

It is not likely that there will be leftovers, but if there will be some, you need to chill it quickly in the fridge so that it wont spoil. A cup or two of water or beef broth needs to be added when you reheat it so that it will have the same soup constancy again.

Try this Misua and Meatball Soup Recipe. Let me know what you think.
