In a bowl, combine ground beef, 0.5 cup chopped onion, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon chili powder, and 0.5 teaspoon salt. Mix well and form into meatballs about 1 inch in diameter.
In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and brown them on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add 0.5 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1 can (400 g) of diced tomatoes, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon cumin. Bring to a simmer.
Return the meatballs to the pot, cover, and let simmer on low heat for 30 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through and the flavors meld, stirring occasionally.
