Meatballs:

In a bowl, combine the ground beef, 1 large grated garlic clove (or 2 small), 1 egg, black pepper, cumin, and salt. Mix well with your hands, then form into meatballs.

Peel the potatoes and cut them into wedges.

Heat the oil in a large pot. Add the minced garlic, grated tomato, and tomato paste. Season and let simmer for 5 minutes.

Add the meatballs and cook for 10 minutes. Then cover with boiling water and add the potatoes.

Cover and simmer until the potatoes and meatballs are cooked through.
