Instructions

Step 1

Start with the meatballs. Soak the torn bread in milk for 20 minutes then add the meat and mix well. Mix in the rest of the ingredients and roll into 16 balls. Bake in a conventional oven at 350°F on a lined baking sheet for 30 minutes. Or air fry at 390°F for 12 minutes. You can flip them halfway through but it's not necessary. The internal temperature when cooked should read 165°F.

Step 2

While the meatballs cook, prep the stew. Heat olive oil to medium high heat in a skillet. Add the onions and brown for 4-5 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the garlic for 30 seconds before adding the flour and tomato paste. Add the remaining ingredients, cover and reduce heat to a simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the potatoes/carrots/turnip are tender. Finally add the meatballs to the stew and simmer another 15-20 minutes.
