How to make galets soup with ball:
- Here we have the ingredients for the galets with ball soup. The galets are a shell-shaped pasta; in the market you will find them in various sizes, the larger they are, the easier it will be to fill them. The broth can be chicken or meat and the meat is mixed. Herbs are also added to make the ball, I have opted for oregano but you can also put parsley and, if you like, a clove of minced garlic.
- To prepare the ball that will serve to fill the pasta, mix the minced meat, the egg and the minced biscuit in a bowl. We also add a pinch of salt, black pepper and oregano or parsley. You can also add a clove of minced garlic.
- Now comes the most laborious part of this Catalan Christmas recipe. It is about filling the raw galets. The easiest thing is to do it by hand, without complicating our lives with piping bags or other utensils. You have to press the meat well into the pasta, to prevent it from coming out during cooking.
- Then we will boil the galets in the broth, following the instructions of the pasta brand. Keep in mind that the meat also has to be cooked, so it is normally a rather long cooking time for pasta; in my case, it was 17 minutes.
- Serve the galets with ball soup in bowls and accompany it with a good red wine. Bon Appetite! And to continue with Spanish Christmas recipes, we recommend you try the chestnut flan or the baked monkfish with almonds.
