Instructions
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • In a large bowl, combine beef mince, fine breadcrumbs, chicken-style stock powder, the egg and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person).
Little cooks: Join the fun by helping combine the ingredients and shaping the mixture into meatballs! Make sure to wash your hands well afterwards.
• Transfer meatballs to a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and turn to coat. • Bake until browned, 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks. Cut beetroot into 1cm chunks. • Place sweet potato and beetroot on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
• Once meatballs are done, remove baking dish from oven and stir through passata, garlic & herb seasoning, the water, brown sugar and butter, until combined. Season. • Turn meatballs to coat then bake, until sauce is slightly thickened, a further 8-10 minutes.
• While sauce is thickening, slice cucumber into thin rounds. • Cut apple into thin wedges. • In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, apple, mixed salad leaves and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season.
Little cooks: Take the lead by tossing the salad!
• Divide Mediterranean beef meatballs, roasted sweet potato bites and garden salad between plates. • Spoon any sauce from baking dish over meatballs. Crumble over fetta cubes to serve. Enjoy!
