Prep: Wash and dry all produce. Grate or mince the garlic. Cut the carrot into 1/4-inch cubes. Finely chop the basil.

Make the polpetti: In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef with the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Roll the beef mixture into 1-inch round meatballs.
Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add a drizzle of oil, then the meatballs. Cook the meatballs (in batches, if necessary) until just browned, about 1 min per side. Set the meatballs aside in the same bowl.

Make the soup: Add a drizzle of oil to the pot, then the garlic, onion, celery and carrots. Cook until the veggies start to soften, 3-4 min. Add 3 1/2 cups water, broth concentrate(s), crushed tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer the mixture until the veggies are tender, 5-7 min.
Add the sugar, pasta and meatballs into the soup and cook for another 4-6 min, until the pasta is al dente.
Finish and serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with the basil. Enjoy!
