Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 egg
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (parsley or thyme), chopped
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, and salt and pepper. Mix gently and form into meatballs.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides.
- Pour beef broth and Worcestershire sauce into the skillet with the meatballs. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes.
- In a pot, cover cubed potatoes with cold water, add salt, and bring to a boil. Cook until tender (12–15 minutes). Drain and mash with heavy cream, butter, garlic powder, and chopped herbs.
