This hearty "meat-and-potatoes" dish is one of my husband's favorite meals. We like them better than traditional ground beef meatballs. Topped with a mushroom soup-based sauce, they're very savory and satisfying.-Kathy Rusert, Mena, Arkansas

Categories     turkey

Yield 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb lean ground turkey
2 cups sweet potato mashed
1 onion, finely chopped
1 egg
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup parsley
½ cup breadcrumbs (I used Panko, but regular breadcrumbs would work just as well)
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp hot sauce (I used Frank's)
salt and pepper to taste
oil for frying

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients well. In a large skillet heat some vegetable oil over medium heat for frying the meatballs. Shape the mixture into meat balls. Fry the meatballs in the skillet, a few at a time, turning them around so that they fully brown on all sides about 7 minutes. Repeat with all meatballs. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your meatballs.
  • Don't overmix the meatball mixture. Overmixing can make the meatballs tough.
  • Use a light touch when forming the meatballs. This will help prevent them from becoming too dense.
  • Cook the meatballs until they are browned on all sides and cooked through. This will ensure that they are safe to eat.
  • Serve the meatballs with your favorite sauce. Some popular options include tomato sauce, gravy, or tzatziki sauce.

Conclusion:

Turkey potato meatballs are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a hearty and satisfying appetizer, turkey potato meatballs are sure to please.
