Ingredients

Instructions

Peel and chop the onion finely. Put the minced meat in a bowl and add the egg.
Season with salt and pepper. Add half the onion and the semolina (2 tbsp). Mix until well combined. Knead the mixture for 1-2 minutes.
Wet your hands and form the mixture into meatballs. Heat the vegetable oil (30 ml) in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the meatballs and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a large pot.
In the same frying pan over medium heat, fry the remaining onion for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the tomato paste (2 tbsp) and season with salt and pepper. Optionally add 1 tablespoon sugar. Stir well.
Pour the boiling water (400 ml) into the pan and bring to a simmer. Pour the sauce over the meatballs.
Simmer the meatballs over low heat for 10-15 minutes until cooked through. Serve with your favorite side dish.
