Instructions

Cook potatoes and apples
1

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Peel, then cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Peel, core, then cut apple into 1-inch pieces. Add potatoes, apples, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 10-12 min. Drain and return potatoes and apples to the same pot, off heat. Mash 2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl) into potatoes and apples until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Roast meatballs
2

Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add beef, panko, Dijon, half the Worcestershire sauce and 1/4 tsp salt (dbl for 4 ppl) to a large bowl. Season with pepper, then combine. Roll mixture into 8 equal-sized meatballs (16 for 4 ppl). Arrange meatballs on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the top of the oven until golden-brown and cooked through, 10-12 min.**

Caramelize onions
3

Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. While the pan heats, peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices. When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then swirl the pan until melted. Add onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden-brown, 8-10 min. Season with salt and pepper.

Roast broccoli
4

Meanwhile, cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces. Add broccoli and 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to another parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Roast in the middle of the oven until tender and golden-brown, 12-14 min. Carefully remove broccoli from the oven. Sprinkle cheese over top, then continue to roast until cheese melts, 1-2 min.

Make caramelized onion gravy
5

Meanwhile, sprinkle Gravy Spice Blend over caramelized onions. Cook, stirring often, until onions are coated, 30 sec. Gradually stir in 3/4 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl), broth concentrate and remaining Worcestershire sauce until smooth. Increase heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until gravy comes to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until gravy thickens slightly, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Finish and serve
6

Add meatballs to the pan with gravy. Gently stir to coat. Divide mash and broccoli between plates. Arrange meatballs on mash. Spoon caramelized onion gravy over meatballs.
