Steps:

  1. Peel the onion and pass it through the fine mesh of a grater. Squeeze the bitter juice in your palm.
  2. Take the minced meat, onion, breadcrumbs, finely chopped parsley and an egg in a deep bowl, knead it until it is smooth, and let it rest for half an hour in the refrigerator by stretching it.
  3. While the meatballs are resting, peel the potatoes and cut them into large apple slices and put them in salted water.

  5. At this stage, if you wish, fry the meatballs and potatoes in a deep pan in oil and remove the excess oil by removing them on a paper towel. If you are going to cook it in a pan, arrange a potato and a meatball in a flat pan, or place it raw on the baking tray in the same way.
  6. For the sauce, take the butter in a saucepan and melt it and when the oil is hot, add the finely chopped garlic, turn it 1-2 turns, add the tomato paste and grated tomato to the oil and cook until the water is absorbed slightly.
  7. Pour tomato sauce over the meatballs and potatoes you have lined up.

  9. Add 2 cups of hot water from the side of the dish and cook for 1/2 hour in the oven or pot.
  10. Take the cooked food from the fire or oven and distribute 1 tablespoon of butter on the meatballs. Let it rest for 5 minutes and garnish with finely chopped parsley and serve hot. Bon Appetit!
