Yaklaşık 3 dk.
Aşçının notu: Using your hands is the best way to mix, but be careful not to overwork the meat, which can make the meatballs tough.

Roll the mixture into balls about 1.5 inches in diameter and set them aside on a plate.
Yaklaşık 10 dk.

Stir in the garlic for the soup, ground cumin, and dried oregano, cooking for one minute until fragrant.
