Pork Ribs Soup with Dumplings

The soup with dumplings will be tasty with any meat: pork, beef, or chicken. The choice of meat is up to you. For children, of course, it's better to choose chicken. Pork ribs soup will be heartier and more filling. Thoroughly wash the pork belly with ribs to remove any small bones. Trim excess fat from the pork ribs, if present. Once the meat is in the pot, pour in some cool water. Add the bay leaf and peppercorns, and place the pot with the meat on the heat. After boiling, remove all the foam that forms on the surface. Then, cook the broth with the lid closed over medium heat until the meat is done. This takes from 40 minutes to 1 hour. Check the readiness of the pork with a knife.

When the meat on the pork ribs becomes soft, remove the pork from the broth onto a plate. Slightly cool the pork ribs, and remove the bones. Cut the meat into portion-sized pieces, cover with a lid, and set aside.

Peel several potatoes and cut into small cubes.

Add the potatoes to the boiling broth. Continue cooking the soup with potatoes for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the sauté for the soup. Peel the onion and finely chop it.

Grate the carrot after peeling it (with a fairly coarse grater). If desired, the carrot can be cut into small strip slices.

Sauté the chopped onion in vegetable oil until transparent. Then add the carrot to the onions and sauté together briefly.

Add the sauté to the pot, and cook the soup for another 5 minutes.

Prepare the dumplings for the soup. Crack the egg into a deep bowl.

Adding salt and a ladle of warm broth to the egg, mix the ingredients.

After adding the semolina, mix the mass.

Now add the flour, but not all at once, a little at a time.

The dough for the dumplings should have a consistency like thick sour cream.

Scooping the dough with a teaspoon, drop it into the boiling soup. To help the dough slide easily off the spoon, dip the spoon in cold water before each portion, and then scoop the dough. Cook the soup with dumplings for 5 minutes.

Add finely chopped dill. Cook the soup for another 1 minute, then turn off the heat.

Let the soup with dumplings sit for 5 minutes. The pork ribs soup with fluffy dumplings is ready. Pour into bowls, placing a portion of meat in each bowl.

Enjoy your meal!
