Little cooks: Join the fun by helping combine the ingredients and shaping the mixture into meatballs! Make sure to wash your hands well afterwards.

• Meanwhile, boil the kettle. Cut bake-at-home ciabatta into slices (4 per person). • Thinly slice pear into wedges. Pick thyme leaves. Finely chop garlic. • In a medium heatproof bowl, combine gravy granules, thyme and the boiling water (3/4 cup for 2 people / 11/2 cups for 4 people), whisking, until smooth, 1 minute. • In a small heatproof bowl, combine garlic and the butter. Microwave in 10 second bursts or until melted. Season with salt and pepper.
