Preparation
Roast the vegetables
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Quarter the potatoes. Remove the root ends of the Brussels sprouts; halve lengthwise (quarter if large). On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil, ⅓ of the spices and S&P. Roast, stirring halfway, 20 to 25 min., until browned and tender.
Prepare the meatballs
Meanwhile, mince the garlic. In a large bowl, combine the beef, onions, ⅔ of the garlic and ½ the remaining spices. Form into 8 meatballs (double for 4 portions) about the size of a golf ball.
Cook the meatballs
In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the meatballs* and cook, partially covered, turning occasionally, 8 to 10 min., until browned and cooked through.
Make the sauce & coat the meatballs
To the pan of meatballs, add the remaining garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the tomato sauce and remaining spices. Cook, spooning the sauce over the meatballs, 2 to 3 min., until coated and the flavours have combined.
Plate your dish
Divide the vegetables between your plates. Top with the meatballs and sauce. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground beef to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
