Ingredients
Instructions
Make a cross-shaped cut at the top of the tomato of approximately one finger deep.
Place the tomato in a pot with boiling water and boil for 5 minutes. Next, remove, drain and blend.
Simultaneously, in a bowl, mix the ground beef with the chopped garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Mix well and shape into meatballs. Refrigerate.
Place a pan over high heat. Once heated, pour half of the oil and add the meatballs.
Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes or until browned on all sides. Set aside.
Separately, heat the remaining oil in a pot over medium heat. While heating, chop the onion.
Once heated, add the onion with a pinch of salt and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes over medium heat. Add the blended tomato and bring to a boil.
Add the meatballs. Season with oregano, a pinch of salt and add bay leaf if available.
After 5 minutes, remove from heat and serve hot.
