Ingredients

513g pack minced pork

1 tbsp chopped fresh dill (or parsley)

1 medium egg, beaten

50g fresh breadcrumbs

¼ level tsp mixed ground spice

1 tbsp sunflower oil

300ml hot chicken stock

100g Asda Reduced Fat Crème Fraîche

2 tbsp cranberry sauce

2 level tsp cornflour

500g new potatoes, boiled, to serve

310g green beans, boiled, to serve

Method

1
Put the minced pork in a large bowl with the dill or parsley, egg, breadcrumbs and mixed spice. Season and mix with your hands. Shape into 16 meatballs.
2
Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and cook the meatballs until they are browned on all sides. Remove to a plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
3
Add the stock, crème fraîche and cranberry sauce to the pan and heat until simmering, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape the juices from the base of the pan for a rich flavour.
4
Return the meatballs to the pan and simmer for 10 minutes. Mix the cornflour with a little cold water to make a smooth paste. Add to the sauce and bring back to the boil. Serve with the potatoes and beans.
