Stuffed Meatballs And Mashed Potatoes
- 2 pounds potatoes floury, peeled
- 1 onion finely diced
- 1 pound ground beef and pork
- 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
- 1 medium egg beaten
- 4 slices gouda
- 4 slices smoked ham
- 2 tablespoons sunflower oil
- 2 ounces butter
- 1 cabbage trimmed and sliced
- 4 scallions trimmed and sliced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup vegetable stock
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1 pinch grated nutmeg
- 1 cup milk
- cress to garnish
- Cook the potatoes in boiling, salted water for 15-20 mins until tender. Preheat the oven to 325u0b0F. Mix the onion, meat, breadcrumbs and egg together and season. Quarter the meat mixture and shape each portion into a flat, oval-shaped patty. Lay a piece of cheese and a piece of ham on each patty then fold over so that the filling is partially enclosed.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the meatballs and sear, turning for 2-3 mins. Place the meatballs on a baking sheet and bake for 10 mins until cooked through.
- Melt half of the butter in a saucepan, add the cabbage and scallions and saute for 2-3 mins stirring. Add the flour then gradually stir in the stock, followed by the cream. Simmer, stirring until the sauce thickens then stir in the nutmeg and season.
- Drain the potatoes, season then mash with the milk and the rest of the butter. Divide the mashed potatoes and creamed vegetables between 4 plates and top with a filled meatball. Garnish with cress before serving.
