How to Make

  • Step 1: Place potatoes in medium saucepan, cover with water, add vegetable cube, and boil until potatoes are soft.

  • Step 2: Drain water from potatoes (saving the water to make gravy), mash and let cool.

  • Step 3: In the meantime, heat oil in small frying pan, add onions and cook until they just start to brown.

  • Step 4: Place flax seed in small bowl, add ¼ cup of hot water and let stand for about 10 minutes for flax seed to absorb the water.

  • Step 5: When the mashed potatoes have cooled add the soaked flax seed and water, ground almonds, salt, pepper, and cooked onions; mix together and roll into small balls.

  • Step 6: Heat olive oil in large fry pan; add the balls and brown nicely on all sides.

  • Step 7: Transfer the balls into a shallow cooking dish, and cook for approximately ¾ hour at 350°F.

  • Step 8: While the meat(less) balls are cooking, make a vegetarian gravy, pour over the balls and continue cooking for an additional 20 minutes.
