I made it before after watching "cooking with aliya" youtube channel, and after i cooked it for my family, my mother is diabetes and this recipe was good for her. I didn't fried meatballs but boiled them in tomato sauce. I love this recipe

Changing recipe a little it is quite "international" I think. By a little different version its name would be "meatballs in tomato sauce". Boiling them, not frying might makes this food more healthy too.
