  • 1 step

    In a bowl, combine beef mince with paprika, garlic and onion powder. Form the mixture into small meatballs. Set aside.

  • 2 step

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and sauté until translucent.

  • 3 step

    Add chopped sweet potatoes, carrots, and parsnips to the pot. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

  • 4 step

    Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, heat a little olive oil and brown the meatballs on all sides. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

  • 5 step

    Pour the tomato passata and prepared beef stock (150ml per person) into the pot with the softened vegetables. Add fresh thyme and bring to a simmer.

  • 6 step

    Gently add the browned meatballs to the stew. Cover and simmer for an additional 15 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

  • 7 step

    Remove from heat and let the stew rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together more fully.
