Romanian cuisine is known for its emphasis on soups, my favorite being a meatball soup called "ciorba de perisoare" (pronounced chore-ba de perry-shwar-eh). We had it all the time when I was a child, back in Romania.
Romanians divide soups into two main categories: "supa" and "ciorba", the latter referring to recipes that have a distinct sour flavor to them.
This recipe is a "ciorba", pretty easy to make, and it takes about 40 minutes from start to finish.
Ingredients:
1 lb of ground beef (ground chicken or pork are an alternative)
5 celery sticks
2 potatoes
2 tomatoes
1 green bell pepper (or red)
1 1/2 small onions (or a big onion)
2 eggs
1 cup of white flour
3 tbsp tomato sauce
1 lemon
salt
1 tbsp oil
a bunch of fresh parsley
12 cups of water

To begin, prepare your vegetables by washing them.
For this step you will use your celery, tomatoes, bell pepper and 1 onion.
Add 12 cups of water in a pot, and put it to boil.
In the meantime, cut your vegetables as small as you can. For the carrots I used a grater.
When the water is boiling, add your cut vegetables and 1 tsp of salt, and cover it.
Let everything boil for about 10-12 minutes.
