Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and thyme. Mix gently until just combined.
- Shape the mixture into 1-inch meatballs and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté onions and garlic for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
- Stir in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce; bring to a simmer. Whisk in cornstarch mixture until thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Boil diced potatoes and garlic in salted water for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain well.
- Mash potatoes with a potato masher; stir in milk, butter, salt, pepper, and parsley until smooth.
- Combine meatballs with gravy and simmer briefly. Serve meatballs over mashed potatoes with extra gravy.

Notes
Avoid overmixing meatball mixture for best texture. Substitute half of the beef broth with red wine for added depth. Ensure potatoes are well-drained before mashing.
