Instructions

Prep and cook potatoes
1

  • Add potatoes, 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. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 10-12 min.
  • Drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat.
Form and bake meatballs
2
  • Meanwhile, add breadcrumbs, half the Dill-Garlic Spice Blend, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt and 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) milk to a large bowl. Stir until milk is absorbed, 30 sec.
  • Crumble in beef. Season with pepper, then combine again. (TIP: If you prefer a more tender meatball, add an egg to mixture!)
  • Roll mixture into 10 equal-sized meatballs (20 meatballs for 4 ppl). Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven until golden-brown and cooked through, 10-12 min.**
Prep and cook broccoli

  • Meanwhile, cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces..
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.

  • Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
Make gravy
4
  • Reheat the same pan over medium.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then garlic and Gravy Spice Blend. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec.
  • Add 3/4 cup (1 1/4 cups) water, broth concentrate and half the cream. Bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, reduce to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until gravy thickens slightly, 2-3 min.
  • Season with pepper.
  • When meatballs are done, transfer to the pan with gravy. Toss to coat.
