How to cook meatballs in the oven

Soak the bread in milk and then add the mass to the minced meat.
Grate small potatoes on a fine grater and add the mass to the minced meat for juiciness.
Also add eggs, garlic and mix the stuffing until homogeneous.
If the minced meat is too thin, add a little semolina or flour.
Put minced meat for 1 hour in the fridge.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
Shape meatballs and put them on a baking tray lined with parchment or foil.
