Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, egg, fine breadcrumbs, Aussie spice blend, shredded Cheddar cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person).

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

2

• Transfer meatballs to a baking dish with a drizzle of olive oil, turning to coat. • Bake until browned, 15-20 minutes.

3

• Meanwhile, boil the kettle. Cut bake-at-homeciabatta into slices (4 per person). • Thinly slice pear into wedges. Pick thyme leaves. Finely chop garlic. • In a medium 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.

4

Custom Recipe: If you've added diced bacon, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes.

5

Custom Recipe: Add cooked bacon to the backing dish with the gravy mixture. Continue as above.
