    The beef is cut into strips first, and then cut into diced pieces with a knife.

    Then chop the beef into meat paste. (You can use a blender if you have a blender, but I don't bother to wash it afterwards and chop it harder with my hands.)
  • Make  step 3

    Wash the chives and mushrooms, cut them into pieces, and place them into a bowl with the minced ginger and beef paste. (You need to choose a deeper bowl for easy mixing.)

    Then add a proper amount of starch (the amount of starch is about 100 grams, which is about the size of 2 eggs) sesame oil, soy sauce, a small amount of salt (with soy sauce, the salt can also be omitted), and pepper (a little bit, just to add the flavor). Then use chopsticks to stir vigorously in one direction for about 5 minutes.

  • Tomato beef meatball soup Make Tips

    1. Although we despise the meatballs sold outside that are mixed with a lot of flour and taste too smooth and have no beef flavor, when making beef meatballs at home, we still need to add a certain amount of starch, otherwise the beef meatballs will taste very old. After adding a proper amount of starch, the taste will be very smooth and tender.
