👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Prepare the hutspot base: Place the potato chunks, chopped carrots, and quartered onions in a large pot. Cover with cold water, add 1 tsp of salt, and bring to a boil. Cook for 25-30 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.
⏱️ 30 minutes - 2
While vegetables cook, make the gehaktballen: In a bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, nutmeg, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Mix well until just combined; do not overmix.
💡 Conseils de pro: Overmixing can result in tough meatballs. - 3
Form the mixture into 4 large meatballs. Heat butter or oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the meatballs on all sides until nicely browned.
⏱️ 8 minutes - 4
Reduce heat to medium-low, add about 100ml of water or beef broth to the skillet, cover, and let the meatballs simmer gently for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
⏱️ 25 minutes - 5
Drain the cooked vegetables for the hutspot, reserving about 200ml of the cooking liquid. Mash the vegetables together with the reserved liquid until you achieve a coarse mash. Season with the remaining 0.5 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Keep warm.
💡 Conseils de pro: A potato masher works best for a traditional hutspot texture. - 6
Prepare the jus: Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside. Pour off excess fat, leaving about 1 tbsp in the pan. Add the flour and whisk to form a roux. Gradually whisk in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 7
Serve the hutspot topped with the gehaktballen and generously drizzled with the jus.
💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓For extra flavor in the meatballs, you can add finely chopped parsley or a pinch of allspice.
- ✓Don't over-mash the hutspot; a slightly chunky texture is desirable.
- ✓Ensure the meatballs are cooked through to avoid any raw meat.
