Meatballs with Pita Recipe

First of all, we decided how the meatball filling should be, you can be completely free here. First, we rested the meatball mixture, then we cut off pieces of the desired size and fried them in a non-stick pan. While the tomato sauce was boiling over low heat, the yoghurt was whisked.

Then they all came together on the same serving plate, palates were delighted, and those who didn't eat it regretted it.
