Tips & Tricks
Preparation tips
The fattier the beef, the better. You can season this soup with paprika to spice it up and add more flavor. About ½ teaspoon of paprika will do. Some people have a habit of adding bay leaves to their soups because of the unique flavor they bring. Note that bay leaves are only optional. Use olive oil for cooking the ground beef, onion, and garlic.
