Recipe type: Soup
Cuisine: Indonesian
Serves: 8
Ingredients:
  • 500gr beef minced
  • 200gr corn flour
  • 6 garlic clove, minced
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 5 white egg
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp salt (or as needed)
  • Water
Broth Ingredients:
  • 3 litre of homemade beef stock
  • 3 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 stalk celery
  • 1 spring onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp beef stock powder
  • Salt as needed
For Serving:
  • Egg noodles or rice noodles
  • Celery leaf, chopped
  • Spring onion, chopped
  • Fried shallot (you can buy from Asian groceries)
  • Kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)
  • Tomato sauce
  • Chili sambal sauce
Cooking Instructions:
How to make meatballs:
  1. Sautee the garlic until softened.
  2. Mix the sautéed garlic with the rest of the ingredients, mix well in a food processor (you can use your hands to mix them if you don't have food processor, just make sure all ingredients mixed well).
  3. Boil enough water in a big soup pot, add the meatballs one by one as you make them. I use spoons to scoop and shape them. And when they start floating, thats when the meatballs are cooked.
How to make the broth:
  1. Place all the broth ingredients in a soup pot/deep pot and bring to boil.
  2. Add the meatballs.
Notes
Serving suggestion:
Put all serving ingredients in a medium soup bowl, add few meatballs with the broth.
You can skip the chili sambal for non spicy bakso.
I hope you find this bakso recipe useful :)
