Romanian ciorba refers to a whole family of sour soups, and the use of lovage is one of the flavours many Romanians instantly associate with home cooking.
Method
In a bowl, combine minced pork, rice, egg, salt, and pepper, then shape into small meatballs.
In a large pot, simmer onion, carrot, celery, and peppers in stock until slightly softened.
Gently add the meatballs to the pot and cook until they rise and are fully cooked through.
Add the tomato and simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in the souring agent and chopped lovage or parsley.
Taste and adjust seasoning.
Serve hot, with sour cream if desired.
