1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1 Maui Onion, chopped
2 cloves peeled garlic, minced
Cold water as needed
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 quarts beef broth or vegetable broth
1 28-ounces can whole tomatoes, crushed with your hands and retain the liquid from the can
1/2 jar Fire Roasted Chiles, diced
1 large Maui Onion, diced
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil, crushed
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano, crushed

Sour cream
Tortilla chips or strips
In a large bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients, making sure to add the water slowly, and mix well.
The mixture should be moist but not wet. Form into small balls.
Heat the olive oil in a pan and brown the meatballs on all sides.
In a large stock pot, combine the beef broth, tomatoes and the tomato liquid from the can, chiles, onion, basil, oregano and Tabasco Sauce. Over high heat, bring to a boil.
Next add the rice, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
Add the meatballs, cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt and pepper.
Garnish with a little sour cream and thin strips of colored tortilla chips. Serve hot.
This is even more delicious for lunch the next day!
