Beef Meatballs with Tomato Sauce and Basmati Rice

Preheat the oven to 200–210 °C and prepare an oven-safe dish (approximately 30 cm × 40 cm).

In a large bowl, mix the minced beef with dried oregano, crushed garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix the composition well.

In the oven-safe dish, pour 100 ml of water, add the canned chopped tomatoes and bay leaves. Form meatballs of approximately 55–60 g from the meat mixture and place them in the dish, directly in the tomato sauce.
