Chop the onion finely and mince the garlic after removing its core.

Heat olive oil, garlic, and cumin seeds in a pan over low heat until fragrant. Add ground meat and cook over medium heat until browned. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened.

Add diced tomatoes, paprika powder, cayenne pepper, and bay leaf. Mash the tomatoes while cooking. Once boiling, reduce to low heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
