Rosemary Pork Meatballs and Cheesy Mash

with red wine jus and roasted carrots

A hint of something herby in this dish comes in the form of rosemary, which is mixed into the pork meatballs in this hearty recipe. Rosemary is a robust herb that pairs particularly well with pork, and it's not a poor accompaniment for the cheesy mashed potatoes that also appear on this plate either.

Instructions

Make the Mash
1
  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).
  • Place in a pot, cover with water and season with salt.
  • Bring to the boil and cook until fork tender, 12-18 mins. Once cooked, drain in a colander (reserving a little cooking water) and return to the pot, off the heat.
  • Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk or cooking water. Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
2
  • Meanwhile, pick the rosemary leaves from their stalks and roughly chop (discard the stalks).
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Trim the carrot, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Chop into 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.
Roast the Carrot
3
  • Pop the carrots onto a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
  • Roast on the middle shelf of the oven until tender, 20-25 mins. Turn the tray halfway through cooking.
Bake the Meatballs
4
  • In a large bowl, mix rosemary, mince, garlic, breadcrumbs, 2 tbsp water (per 2P) and ¼ tsp salt (per 2P). 
  • Season with pepper and mix together by hand. Roll into evenly-sized balls, 3-4 per person.
  • Pop onto a (separate) lined baking tray. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Meatballs are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Bake on the top shelf of the oven until browned outside and cooked through, 12-15 mins.
5
  • Meanwhile, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, add the onion and fry until softened, 4-5 mins. 
  • Stir in the red wine jus and cranberry chutney.
  • Allow the sauce to bubble and thicken, stirring regularly, 2-3 mins.
  • When the meatballs are cooked through, add them to the sauce and toss to coat.

TIP: Loosen the sauce with a splash of water if you feel it's too thick.

6
  • Share the cheesy mash between plates.
  • Spoon the meatballs and sauce on top.
  • Serve roasted carrots alongside.
