Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Remove any brown spots from potatoes. Peel, then cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces.
- To a large pot, add potatoes, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover by approx. 1 inch (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Simmer uncovered for 10-12 min, until fork-tender.
- Drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat. Mash 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter and 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) milk into potatoes until slightly mashed. (NOTE: 'Smashed' potatoes will still have a few chunks!) Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, trim snap peas.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- In a small bowl, combine stock powder and 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water. Set aside.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To a large bowl, add half the garlic, breadcrumbs andImpossible® Burger Patties. Season with pepper and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt, then combine.
- Roll mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs.
- On the prepared baking sheet, arrange meatballs.
- Roast in the top of the oven for 12-14 min or until browned and cooked through.**
- Heat a large oven-proof pan over medium. (TIP: If you don't have an oven-proof pan, use a large non-stick pan.)
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then onions and remaining garlic. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until slightly softened.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, then add vinegar and 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until onions are dark brown.
- Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then sprinkle all-purpose flour over onions. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until coated.
- Stir in stock (from step 2). Bring to a gentle boil.
- To an unlined baking sheet, add snap peas, carrots and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 8-10 min, stirring halfway through, until tender.
- Once gravy is boiling, add meatballs to the pan. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until gravy is slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat.
- Sprinkle cheese over top and bake in the top of the oven for 3-4 min, until cheese melts slightly. (TIP: If you don't have an oven-proof pan, carefully transfer meatball mixture to an 8x8-inch [9x13-inch] baking dish.) (NOTE: Cheese will be hot, be careful!)
- Divide smashed potatoes and veggies between plates.
- Arrange meatball-onion gravy over smashed potatoes.
If you've opted to get Impossible® Burger Patties, prep and cook the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook beef and pork mix.** Disregard tip to add an egg to mixture.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The French onion gravy has a rich, savoury depth, though some felt the overall flavour was less vibrant than expected with the plant-based patties.
- Suggestions: Consider adding extra caramelised onion time or a pinch more seasoning to boost flavour when using the Impossible patties.
- Ease of prep: No substantive prep feedback was provided by reviewers.
- Wait — I need to follow the rules strictly. "Ease of prep" has no substantive feedback, so I must omit it. Also, the beef stock comment relates to ingredient sourcing/substitution preferences, which I should not include. Let me also check: the texture comment ("all soft") is an ingredient texture complaint — I should assess whether it's cooking-method related. It could be actionable (roasting longer for more texture), but the reviewer doesn't suggest a fix, and it's a single mention. I'll omit it.
- Flavour: The dish has a savoury French onion profile, though some found the flavour less pronounced when made with the plant-based patties.
- Suggestions: Consider extending the caramelisation time for the onions to deepen the flavour when using Impossible patties.
