Steak Meatballs with Mashed Potatoes Recipe.

Mashed potatoes? Yes, white potatoes are totally fine to eat if you tolerate them well – they’re not any less nutritious than sweet potatoes, they don’t cause blood sugar problems in people who have normal carbohydrate metabolism, and there’s no reason to avoid nightshades unless you already have an autoimmune disease. If you don’t do well with carbs, or if you do have an autoimmune disease, you might want to skip them, but that doesn’t make them “bad” in the abstract.

Ingredients

Scale

1 1/2 lbs. ground beef;
1 egg;
2 tbsp. old fashioned mustard;
1 tbsp. coconut aminos;
1 tsp. onion powder;
Cooking fat;
Fresh parsley, minced; (to garnish)
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper;

Ingredients for the simple gravy

1 onion, chopped;
1 cup beef stock;
2 tbsp. clarified butter;
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper;

Ingredients for the mashed potatoes

4 large potatoes, peeled and roughly chopped;
3 tbsp. clarified butter;
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper;

Instructions

Boil the potatoes until fork tender in a saucepan filled with water, about 15 minutes.
Drain the water and mash the potatoes using a potato masher. Mix in the clarified butter and season to taste with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, combine the ground beef, egg, mustard, coconut aminos, onion powder, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Shape the meat mixture into meatballs with your hands.
Melt some cooking fat in a skillet placed over a medium-high heat.
Add the meatballs and cook on all sides until fully cooked.
Remove the meatballs and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt some clarified butter, add the onions and cook until browned.
Add the beef stock, scrape the bottom of the pan to get all the brown bits, and cook for 5 to 6 minutes.
Return the meatballs to the skillet and mix gently with the gravy.
Serve the meatballs with the mashed potatoes, with fresh parsley sprinkled on top.
