3. Stir the onions with 2 bay leaves until softened, then add the tomatoes and mix well.
4. Fry the potato cubes, drain them well from the oil, then add them over the onions and tomatoes.
5. Add the curry seasoning, turmeric, or yellow spice, along with the chicken bouillon cube, and stir well with a little salt.

7. After the vegetable mixture comes to a boil for a few minutes, add the fried meat balls.
8. Let the meat balls and vegetables simmer together for several minutes.
