Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and dry produce. Dice potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. Trim green beans if needed. Finely dice onion. Mince chives.
2. Place potatoes in a medium pot with enough salted water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to pot.
3. Meanwhile, on a baking sheet, toss green beans with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast until tender and slightly charred, 15-20 minutes.
4. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, panko, half the diced onion, half the fry seasoning, salt and pepper. Form into 1-inch meatballs.
5. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through, 8-10 minutes. Remove meatballs and set aside.
6. In the same pan, add remaining onion and cook until softened, 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle flour over onion and stir for 1 minute. Whisk in beef stock concentrate and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
7. Return meatballs to pan and coat with gravy. Keep warm.
8. Mash potatoes with sour cream, chives, remaining fry seasoning, salt and pepper until smooth. Adjust consistency with a splash of water if needed.
9. Serve meatballs and gravy over mashed potatoes with roasted green beans on the side.
