Instructions

Roast potatoes
1
  • Strip 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) thyme leaves from stems, then roughly chop.
  • Cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces.
  • Add potatoes, half the thyme and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast potatoes in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until golden-brown and tender, 25-28 min.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop parsley.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Combine breadcrumbs, broth concentrate and 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) milk in a large bowl. (TIP: Be sure to mix the breadcrumb mixture evenly for better flavored meatballs throughout!)
Form and roast meatballs
3
  • Add beef and half the garlic to the bowl with breadcrumb-milk mixture. (TIP: If you prefer a firmer meatball, add an egg to mixture!)
  • Season with pepper, then combine.
  • Roll into 12 equal-sized meatballs (24 meatballs for 4 ppl). Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Roast in the top of the oven, until golden-brown and cooked through, 10-12 min.**


Cook snap peas
4
  • Meanwhile, trim snap peas.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then snap peas. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min.
  • Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
Make gravy
5
  • Reheat the same pan over medium. 
  • When the pan is hot, add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter, then onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 min. 
  • Add beef stock powder, remaining garlic, remaining thyme and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) flour. 
  • Cook, stirring often, until onions are coated, 1 min. 
  • Add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Bring to a simmer. 
  • Simmer, stirring often, until gravy reduces slightly, 2-3 min. 
  • Add half the parsley. Stir to mix. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide meatballs, roasted potatoes and snap peas between plates.
  • Spoon thyme gravy over meatballs.
  • Sprinkle remaining parsley over potatoes.
