4 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill, plus extra to garnish
1 small onion, grated
2 garlic cloves, crushed

Low-calorie cooking spray
150ml hot beef or chicken stock
200g passata
A mixed-leaf salad dressed with lemon juice, to serve

1 tsp mustard powder mixed with 2 tsp water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the mash:
900g floury potatoes, such as Desiree or King Edward, peeled and cubed
100ml hot vegetable stock
Method:
1 Preheat your oven to 200°C/ fan 180°C/gas 6. Mix together the dip ingredients in a bowl and chill.

Heat a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Spray the meatballs with low-calorie cooking spray and fry for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally, until lightly browned.
3 Whisk together the stock and passata. Transfer the meatballs to an ovenproof dish in a single layer. Pour over the passata mixture. Bake for 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
4 For the mash, boil the potatoes for 12-15 minutes, then drain and mash with the stock. Transfer the meatballs to a plate with a slotted spoon and whisk the stock mixture in the dish. Divide the mash and meatballs between 4 plates, spoon over the sauce and garnish with dill.
