Soft meatballs that both adults and kids love!
The origin of this recipe
I bought cabbage and ground meat to make stuffed cabbage rolls. But it seemed a bit tedious, so I tried making it without rolling, and it was a big success. It became a popular tomato stew in our home.

Steps

1

Finely chop the onion and roughly chop the cabbage.
2

In a bowl, soak the breadcrumbs in milk. Add the other ◆ ingredients to the bowl and mix well by hand.
3

Line a frying pan with a small amount of oil (do not turn on the heat yet), and shape the mixture from step 2 into balls about 1.2 inches (3 cm) in diameter and place them in the pan.
4

Heat the frying pan over medium heat and brown the surface of the meatballs by rolling them around.
5

Once browned, add water and consomme, bring to a boil, and skim off any foam.
6

Place the cabbage and diced tomatoes on top of the meatballs (just place them without mixing).
7

Cover and simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
8

Remove the lid, add sugar, ketchup, and sauce, and mix everything together (you can add garlic powder if you like).
9

Cover again and simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes or until desired consistency.
10

Taste and if needed, add a little salt and pepper. Top with melting cheese, cover, and once the cheese has melted, it's ready to serve ♫
