Cooking steps

Boil the Potatoes
1
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the potatoes.
  • Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
  • Trim the tip of the broccoli. Cut head into small florets and stem into 2cm pieces.
  • When boiling, add the potatoes to the water and cook until fork tender, 10-15 mins. Add the broccoli for the final 3-5 mins and cook until just tender.
  • Once cooked, drain in a colander.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Shape the Meatballs
2
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
  • In a large bowl, combine the mince, garlic, breadcrumbs, 2 tbsp water (per 2P), ¼ tsp muscat (per 2P), cracked black pepper and a pinch of cinnamon.
  • Mix together with your hands. Roll into evenly-sized balls, 3-4 per person. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
Fry the Meatballs
3
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Fry the meatballs until browned, 5-6 mins. Remove from the pan and set aside. 
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil, if needed. 
  • Fry the onion for 4-5 mins. Add creme fraiche, remaining muscat, half the mustard (per 2P), 50ml water (per 2P) and 1tbsp flour (per 2P). Reduce the sauce, 5-6 mins. 
  • Add a little more flour if the sauce is too thin. Stir in the meatballs and cook for another 6-8 mins. IMPORTANT: Meatballs are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
4
  • Divide the potatoes and broccoli between plates.
  • Spoon the meatballs and sauce alongside.
  • Serve with a dollop of cranberry chutney for dipping.
