Crumble the stale bread. Grate the onion and knead it for 5 minutes with the ground beef, bread, egg, cumin, black pepper and half the salt; chill for 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Peel the potatoes and cut into 1 cm rounds; slice the tomatoes and roughly chop the green peppers.

Shape the mixture into 16-18 flat patties.

Arrange the potatoes in a large baking tray (about 30x40 cm), set the patties on top and tuck the tomatoes and peppers in between; drizzle with the olive oil.
- 5
Dilute the tomato paste with the water and remaining salt and pour it evenly over the tray.

Cover the tray with foil and bake at 200 °C for 30 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for another 15-20 minutes until the meatballs and potatoes are browned and the sauce has thickened; serve hot.
