1

Prepare the meat mixture by combining 500 grams of ground meat with 1 finely chopped onion and a small amount of cayenne pepper and garlic salt.

Mix the ingredients by hand, adding chopped parsley directly into the meat mixture.

3

Form the mixture into meatballs and place them in a greased baking dish with butter.

4

Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F) and place the meatballs inside to bake while preparing the sauce.

5

In a high-sided skillet, heat some oil and sauté 2-4 chopped onions and garlic until fragrant.

6

While the onions are cooking, blanch the tomatoes in boiling water to remove their skins, then chop them.

7

Add the chopped tomatoes to the skillet with the sautéed onions and garlic, mixing well.

8

Add a large amount of chopped parsley (including stems) to the mixture and season with salt.

9

Remove the meatballs from the oven and pour the sauce over them, ensuring they are covered.

10

Return the dish to the oven for an additional 20-30 minutes at 200°C (392°F).

11

Prepare a side dish, such as buckwheat, by rinsing it and cooking it in boiling water (1 part buckwheat to 2 parts water).

12

After cooking, serve the meatballs with the sauce and the side dish.
