Knead together well. Wet palms and form walnut-size meatballs. Place them into a bowl with flour and shake until meatballs are coated with flour. Pour the water into a pot. Bring water to a boil, add onion, butter, carrots, and a little bit salt. Add meatballs gently into the boiling water. Add potatoes when meatballs half cooked (about 20 minutes). Lower the flame and simmer everything about an half hour. Remove from heat and discard the cooked onion. Sauce: Break the eggs into a bowl and beat with lemon juice. Gradually add a cup of hot broth from the pot into this mixture while string. Return this sauce to the meatball pot while string meatballs. Serve hot as a main course in individual soup bowls (serves 6). Afiyet olsun! Cengiz Akgun
