Serves 4
4 Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
For the Meatballs:
1-pound ground beef
1 medium onion, quartered
3/4 cup Panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese, optional
1 bunch fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
For the Tomato Sauce:
28 ounces canned tomatoes, pureed
½ cup olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, grated
¾ teaspoon sugar, or more
1 bay leaf
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Garnish: fresh basil or parsley, chopped
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 °F, 200 °C.
To Make the Sauce:
In a saucepan, combine the chopped onions and oil and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes or until they are soft and golden. Add the grated garlic and stir to warm through.
Add all of the remaining sauce ingredients and cook over medium heat until thickened. About 10-15 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
To Make the Meatballs:
Chop the garlic in the food processor until minced. Add the parsley and pulse until finely chopped.
Add the onions to the food processor and pulse until finely chopped.
Whisk the milk and egg together.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the meatball ingredients and knead well to combine and evenly distribute everything.
Form golf -sized meatballs or into burger patties.
To put it all together:
Place the potato wedges in a 9 by 13-inch baking dish or lasagna pan. Season them with salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
Pour half of the tomato sauce over the potatoes.
Place the meatballs over the potatoes and pour the remaining sauce over them.
Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake an additional 35-40 minutes, uncovered, or until the potatoes are fork tender.
Enjoy!

It’s very similar to the Lebanese fish, Kafta with potato’s although we add rings of onion, sliced tomatoes and rings of potato. We use lamb with grated onion and parsley mixed together and made into balls. Sauce is the same. Made yours and was yummy, thx again for a great dish. 🌞🌞

LOOKS FANTASTIC! I WILL be making this & I Definitely would like to lemony version...

Gluten-free substitutes for bread crumbs are oatmeal and or pork rinds ... Very tasty! Thank you so much for the recipe! Cyn~
🙏 Thank you 😊
Yummy
Always ready to taste new dishes! Yummy, yum! Doing the air fryer way.
Waving to you from south Georgia-land of best Peaches, boiled Peanuts, & Vidalia onions!
; )
OMG i am going to make this for my familia 💥💥💥👏👏👏👏
γεια'σ ρε δημητρουλα, ωραιο φαγητο. Σιγουρα θα το φτιαξω :)
Yes I would like the lemony version
Grated potato is how we make keftedes in Cyprus. Some people use that instead of breadcrumbs. I use both. And I always use gluten free breadcrumbs. I’m the Uk we can get Mrs Crimbles gluten free bread crumbs. Which are really good.
And also this looks absolutely delicious
Thanks Chris!! My mom adds grated potatoes to keftedes now and then. Pretty yummy!!
Would like to see Chinese cooking
For gluten free Panko substitute, I use rice crispy cereal after it has been finely ground in the food processor.
I use a dried slice of gluten free bread, and place it in the food processor to make bread crumbs.
Yummmmy
YES lemony version!
I swear I had this dish in Turkey and it’s called Izmir küfte 😁
Yes please do the lemony one.
Have mine in the oven now! 😄👏🏼
Yummm!! Have a plate for me too!! This is my favorite comfort food :)
Dimitra's Dishes so easy and it turned out PERFECTLY! 😄 yia sta heria sou!
Yes.. lemon potatoes....please
😋 yum
I made this for dinner tonight (with a few variations due to isolation ingredients being somewhat lacking.
But it was absolutely delicious.
Thank you Dimitra & best wishes from the UK
No need for so many condiments and spices. Here in Greece we use a few basic ones which work well.
Yes do the lemon version too please
I add both breadcrumbs and grated potatoes (how my mother used yo make them). It helps bulk out the mixture especially if you feeding a lot of people. To 500g of minced beef, I would add say, 3 medium size potatoes.
When I aaked my friend who is Lebonese and Greek..😉 she was very surprised that I noticed it. She told me her Lebonese mother always but lemon and one to two cinnamon sticks in the water of her chicken soup. It was not bad at all, but I was the only one out of her 8 guest that detected the hint of the cinnamon flavor. Is an Arabic thing 😁
I was raised in an Italian household.....if you don’t have homemade breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup steamed rice is a good substitute !
My child hood memories
This looks delicious and in the meantime you can put my name down for the lemony version as well! (Whenever you have time of course...….)
Made it and it was a massive hit, added to the favorites list. By the way I'm sure aluminum foil is totally safe. If you were told it causes Alzheimer's that's a myth.
Hi, Dimitra! Yes, could you show us the lemon version of this? Thanks in advance!
Yes please to the lemon ones
Would you please explain how to make greek lemonade roasted potatoes?
Yes plz, lemon version
Please make avgolemono keftedakia and Thessalian kapamas which are made in yoghurt broth.
I do have a recipe already up called youvarlakia. It's an avgolemono meatball soup. Delicious!
Looks extremely delicious. I will try this recipe, but I think I'm going to double the amount of sauce. 🙋🏻♀️
YESSS!! That would be fantastic!
This looks amazing - definitely have to try it. Do you think you could do a video on what you pack for your kids’ lunches? Like how you use your recipes to create a cold lunch? I’m trying to get away from lunch meat and boring old sandwiches.
This recipe would be perfect for lunch! It tastes wonderful at room temperature because the meatballs are so soft, but you can also take the meatballs and make a sandwich for the kids :) Yumm!! I will try to do some videos on utilizing leftovers :) Thanks for the idea!!
Dimitra's Dishes I have sent meatballs, and they were a big hit which is why I thought to ask after seeing your video. I’m also planning on making your souvlaki to put on a sandwich. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks for replying! 😃
Check out my chicken panini video. That's a great lunch dish :) Here it is: ruclips.net/video/l1Ff5fQBAKc/видео.html
Dimitria, my friend has a lemon tree but he's allergic to citrus so I get free lemons!
Please do the lemon version of this!
Can you start saying the meat in Grams cause I used 1 pound like you said and I didn’t have that many meatballs like you did
I would like for you to show the lemon sauce
.thankyou DeAnn
I did that one too :)
Lemon! 😊
Is the lemon version of this dish available on your website?
Not yet. I will teach the lemony version soon :)
hi guys, I have made this a few times, and even cheat versions when stuck for time or lazy and here is what I have learned:
-passata or any tinned tomatoes will work, but will be less saucy if whole tomatoes are not blended.
-1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder/dried garlic will work in place of 1 fresh clove.
- you can make a quicker, cheat sauce by adding everything to large microwave boil and microwave for 10 minutes. I leave out the olive oil as not frying and calorie conscious.
-you can cheat and use ready made meatballs or even burgers, but burgers and unseasoned meatballs won't be as tasty.
-you can cheat and use ready made sauce- most tomato sauces will work, something like an arrabiata or marinara- but add more water, about 1-2 times the volume of the sauce and more flavour with oregano, dried garlic, dried onion, salt, pepper.
What you think of nutmeg in it ?
I'm not the biggest fan of nutmeg... But, if you like it, you should add some :)
Cumin will be great in it if its beef-lamb mince what you think of allspice ?
I love cumin too. I've never tried allspice here.
I use Allspice balls in almost all of my dishes that include tomato based sauces as in my Greek vegetable dishes.
Can I use turkey instead?
Many grocery stores now sell gluten free bread crumbs
I had chicken soup that the broth had a note of cinnamon. I noticed in many of your recipes you use cinnamon, do you also use cinnamon when you make chicken soup?
Cinnamon pairs well with tomato-based dishes so, I love to add it to them. I've never tried it in broths. How was it? Did you like it?
Add one minute Quick Oats! Is cinnamon traditionally added to Greek dishes?
Yes, it is often added to tomato based dishes.
What part of Greece are you from?
The island of Crete 💙
Panko bread crumbs come also gluten free.
Lemon recipe meatballs recipe please
I can't eat tomato sauce based dishes so please give us the lemon based based one of this dish. Thanks
I am just wondering why I dont see you in the food network channel.
Haha! They probably don’t know I exist 😂
Over boiled rice is what we use in Italy
What a great idea!! I will add that to my memory bank for next time :)
Paprika also in it.
Σαν μανά σαν κορι μπραβο Δήμητρα.
Recipe is not attached.
Sorry about that. It's there now :)
Quick oats
I love the football one's better😀
Me too!!
Buy gluten free bread and let it go stale then grate it and there you have gluten free bread crumbs
Kofte? This is Turkish food :)
Dairy is nasty anything we can sub for the eggs? The cheese can be left out so not concerned about that
You can add mashed potatoes. That would be a good substitute and I've also heard that flax seeds are a great substitute for eggs.
