Add all the meatball ingredients together into a bowl and mush together until all the ingredients are combined. Roll into smaller than golf ball sized meatballs and place onto a large plate.

In a large pot fry the vegetables in the butter on a medium heat for 20 minutes. Add the flour and stir so it coats everything. Slowly pour in both the stocks to create the sauce. Stir so there are no lumps. Add the rest of the soup ingredients except the pasta, double and sour cream. Bubble away for 20 minutes.

Fry the meatballs in 3/4 batches on a low heat with a generous amount of vegetable oil. Cook for 4/5 minutes per batch and set aside. Repeat until you have no more raw meatballs.

Add the cooked meatballs to the sauce and add the double cream and sour cream and Pasta. Cook for 4/5 minutes if the pasta is fresh or 12/14 minutes if using dry. Serve into bowls with parsley, a generous spoon of ligonberry/cranberry jam.
