Put this one meatball in a small cup of water (make sure the water covers the meatball) and let it sit for 5 minutes.

When the water boils, add in all the meatballs, cover and cook for about 35-40 minutes.While the meatballs are cooking, peel and cube the potatoes, and about 15 minutes before the meatballs are finished, throw in the potatoes, and add more water if needed. (the meatballs should be covered in water for the whole time the meal cooks). Once the stew is finished, it can be served with rice and yogurt on the side.
