Escudella de Galets (Pasta Soup) (Andorra)

Escudella de Galets is a classic Catalonian and Andorran winter dish, often served during festive occasions such as Christmas. This heartwarming soup is a combination of rich broth, meats like chicken, beef, and sometimes pork, along with large shell-shaped pasta called 'galets'. The soup typically includes a variety of vegetables like carrots, celery, and cabbage, and may feature 'pilota', a large meatball seasoned with garlic and parsley. This filling and aromatic dish captures the essence of traditional Andorran comfort food and is cherished for its robust flavors.
