These tender turkey meatballs bring all the comfort of a roast dinner to an easy stovetop meal. Roast Chicken Seasoning seasons both the meatballs and their glossy onion gravy, tying everything together with warm, savoury herbs.

Turkey mince is lean, so grated onion and a little breadcrumb keep the centres juicy rather than dense. Served over mash, it is the sort of dinner that disappears quickly.

🧾 Ingredients

• 500g turkey mince
• 1 small onion, half grated and half finely sliced
• 50g fresh breadcrumbs
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1½ tbsp Roast Chicken Seasoning
• 1 tbsp rapeseed or olive oil
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp plain flour
• 400ml chicken or vegetable stock
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce or vegetarian alternative
• 1 tsp wholegrain mustard

🍴 Instructions

1. Put the turkey mince, grated onion, breadcrumbs, egg and 1 tbsp Roast Chicken Seasoning in a bowl. Mix lightly and shape into eight meatballs.
2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Brown the meatballs for 6–8 minutes, turning carefully, then transfer to a plate.
3. Add the sliced onion to the pan and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes until soft and golden.
4. Stir in the flour and remaining seasoning for 1 minute. Gradually add the stock, followed by the Worcestershire sauce and mustard.
5. Return the meatballs to the pan. Cover and simmer gently for 12–15 minutes until cooked through and the gravy has thickened.
6. Taste before adding any extra salt, then serve with plenty of gravy.

🥗 Serving Suggestions

Spoon over creamy mashed potato and add green beans or peas. The meatballs can be shaped a day ahead and kept covered in the fridge.

💛 Why This Recipe Works

Gentle mixing prevents tough meatballs, while grated onion adds moisture from within. Slowly browning the sliced onion creates a naturally rich gravy without relying on cream.
