  1. ON A ROLL

    Boil the kettle. In a bowl, combine the mince, a ¼ of the diced onion, and seasoning. Roll into 4-5 meatballs.

  2. PREP STEP

    In a small bowl, loosen the cornflour with 1 tsp of warm water. Set aside. Dilute the stock with 50ml of boiling water.

  3. FRY THE FLAVOURBOMBS

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs until browned but not cooked through, 2-3 minutes (shifting as they colour). Add the quartered mushrooms and the remaining onion. Fry until the onion is soft, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally).

  4. DILL-ICIOUS

    When the onion is soft, add the cream and the diluted stock to the pan. Reduce the heat and simmer until slightly reduced, 8-10 minutes. In the final 1-2 minutes, add the loosened cornflour. Remove from the heat, add the chopped dill, and season.

  5. ROCK THAT BROC

    While the sauce is reducing, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the broccoli pieces until charred, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, add the lemon juice and season.

  6. A FRESH TAKE

    In a bowl, combine the rinsed salad leaves, the sliced radish, seasoning, and a drizzle of oil.

  7. A SWEDISH TASTE SENSATION

    Plate up the charred broccoli. Side with the meatballs doused in the creamy sauce. Serve with the fresh salad. Dig in, Chef!
