Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
Wash and dry all produce. - Remove any brown spots from potatoes, then peel and cut 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.
- Meanwhile, peel, then finely chop shallots.
- Thinly slice mushrooms.
- Roughly chop dill.
- Heat a medium non-stick pan (large non-stick pan for 4 servings) over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, cabbage, carrots, half the vinegar (use all for 4 servings), 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1/4 cup water.
- Reduce to medium, then cover and cook for 5-7 min, stirring often, until veggies are soft and liquid has absorbed.
- When veggies are done, transfer to a medium bowl. Cover to keep warm.
- Carefully wipe out pan.
- While veggies braise, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine beef, breadcrumbs, half the shallots, half the Dill-Garlic Spice Blend and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt.
- Roll mixture into 12 (24) equal-sized meatballs and arrange on prepared baking sheet.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, until golden and cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat.
- Reheat the same pan from step 3 over medium.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, mushrooms and remaining shallots. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend and remaining Dill-Garlic Spice Blend over top. Stir to coat.
- Add broth concentrate and 1/2 cup (1 cup) water. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until gravy thickens. (Tip: For a lighter gravy consistency, add more water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
- Mash half the sour cream and half the dill into potatoes until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide mashed potatoes, braised veggies and meatballs between plates.
- Spoon dill-mushroom gravy over meatballs and potatoes.
- Dollop remaining sour cream over meatballs.
- Sprinkle remaining dill over top.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The meatballs, gravy, and mashed potatoes were widely enjoyed for their rich, comforting flavours. The braised cabbage divided opinions, with some finding it tasty and others feeling it lacked depth.
- Ease of prep: The recipe is straightforward but takes a bit of time to pull together with multiple components cooking at once.
- Suggestions: Reduce the vinegar in the braised cabbage for a milder flavour; adding a splash of milk to the meatball mixture can help with binding. If you'd like more gravy, consider doubling the broth concentrate and water for a more generous pour.
- Portions: Some reviewers felt the beef portion was on the smaller side and suggested doubling the meatballs if cooking for hungrier appetites.
