In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, gluten-free breadcrumbs, tapioca starch, egg, minced garlic, white pepper, salt, and ground nutmeg. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
Using damp hands, shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Set aside.
In a large pot, bring the beef broth and water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Gently drop the meatballs into the boiling broth, one at a time. Reduce the heat to medium and let them cook until they float to the surface, about 10 minutes.
Once all the meatballs are cooked and floating, allow them to simmer for an additional 10 minutes to absorb the broth flavors.
Adjust the seasoning of the broth with more salt and pepper if needed.
Ladle the soup into serving bowls, ensuring each bowl gets a generous number of meatballs.
Garnish each bowl with sliced green onions, fried shallots, and chopped cilantro before serving.
