There are actually 2 parts in making this dish. First, you’ve got to make your soup and second, you need to make your meatballs or Almondigas.
To make the soup, begin by getting your pot nice and hot and turn it to medium high heat. Pour some oil and throw in the onion before adding 1 cup of water and Knorr Shrimp Cubes. Next, stir this gently until the cubes dissolve and the broth turns golden yellow in color. Bring this to a boil before allow it to simmer.
