Juicy beef meatballs braised in a savory beef broth served over creamy garlic herb mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (for meatballs)
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup mashed potatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (for mashed potatoes)
  • 1/4 cup milk (for mashed potatoes)
  • 2 tbsp butter (for mashed potatoes)
  • 1 tbsp fresh herbs (such as parsley or thyme) for mashed potatoes

Instructions

  1. Combine the meatball mix: In a large bowl mix the ground beef, breadcrumbs, finely chopped onion, egg, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Use your hands or a spoon to mix until just combined.
  2. Shape the meatballs: Form the mixture into evenly sized meatballs, about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches each.
  3. Brown the meatballs: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add meatballs in a single layer and brown on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  4. Make the braising liquid: Pour in beef broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any brown bits from the pan.
  5. Simmer until cooked: Return the meatballs to the skillet. Cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until cooked through.
  6. Prepare the mashed potatoes: Boil and mash potatoes with minced garlic, milk, butter, and fresh herbs. Adjust to reach desired creaminess.
  7. Serve: Spoon garlic herb mashed potatoes onto plates, arrange meatballs on top, and ladle pan juices over everything.

Notes

Don’t overwork the meat mixture to keep meatballs tender. Use leftover mashed potatoes to save time.
