Ingredients

beef shank cross cut - two piecese, mine had 800 grams

zucchini - one piece
carrots - two pieces
onions - two pieces
celery root - a small piece
red capsicum - one piece

rice - 2 tablespoons
garlic - one clove
cereal broth - 1 liter
egg - one piece
bread - a slice without crust
lovage - a few leaves
green parsley - a few leaves
salt - to taste

Instructions

I let the rice and the slice of bread to soak in water. I peeled the tomatoes and chopped them.
I put the two pieces of beef shank to boil with the clove of garlic. I used a 5 liters pot which i filled 3/4 with water.

While the meat boils i chopped the veggies: the carrots in round slices, capsicum, parsnip, celery, zucchini and parsley root into little cubes.

After the meat has boiled a little i added one hole onion and let it boil. Don't forget to remove it later.
The meat has boiled so i removed it from the broth (and the onion) and i let it cool before i cut it in small pieces.

In the boiling broth i put the chopped veggies and i let them boil.

After the veggies have softened i added the chopped meat and a big cup of water.

Now it is time to make the meatballs:

Finely chop the onion and add it over the meat. Add the meat, egg, rice, bread, salt and pepper. Stir everything together and make your meatballs the size you want. Toss them trough flour to keep their shape.
