This soup is hearty with the meatballs, pasta and strands of egg stirred in. This is always a favorite soup in our house and with a little star or alphabet-shaped pasta, the kiddos gobble it up! If you are looking for a more of adult flair, feel free to use any small-shaped pasta. Step-by-step photos are in the related blog post.
For the meatballs: In a large bowl combine all the ingredients for the meatballs. Scoop meatballs using a regular size cookie scoop or a tablespoon. Roll into balls and set aside on a cookie sheet.
For the soup: Bring chicken stock to a simmer. Add salt and pepper to taste. Gently add meatballs to simmering stock and return to a simmer. Simmer until meatballs float to the top, about 5 minutes.
Add pasta and cook 5-6 minutes, until pasta is al dente.
Beat eggs, water and pinch of salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
Add washed curly endive to soup. Cook for about 1 minute until soft.
While soup is simmering, stir in beaten egg mixture while stirring in a circle. Cook 1 minute.
Serve garnished with Parmesan cheese.
