Littlemafia's Romanian Meatballs Soup image

I'm opening a series of Romanian soups,especially sour soups called Chiorba or Borsh.Very popular here, some people eat them everyday. This one is called Chiorba de perisoare. I mentioned that it's optional the sour cream & egg yolks step. It makes the soup richer, even if you skip it the taste is still good.
