Method
 

Preparation of Meatballs
  1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (200°C for fan ovens/gas mark 7) and oil a baking tray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the beef mince, egg, 1 tablespoon of gluten-free plain flour, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Mix well.
  3. Use an ice-cream scoop to portion out meatballs, placing them on the prepared tray.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until they have browned.
Preparation of Sauce
  1. While the meatballs are baking, heat the garlic oil in a small pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped mushrooms and sauté until they turn slightly golden.
  3. Sprinkle in the remaining gluten-free plain flour, smoked paprika, mustard, and tomato purée, mixing to coat the mushrooms evenly.
  4. Pour in the vegetable stock, season to taste, and let the mixture simmer for 5-6 minutes until it thickens slightly.
  5. Lower the heat and stir in the soured cream. Cook for an additional minute to combine flavors.
  6. Add the baked meatballs to the sauce, ensuring they’re well-coated.
Serving
