You're building something special here — cheese-stuffed meatballs that'll have everyone asking for seconds. The hands-on part comes at the beginning when you shape each meatball and tuck the gouda inside, while the oven and stovetop do most of the work after that. It's a cozy, hearty meal that comes together in just over an hour, with creamy mashed potatoes and a savory mushroom ragout completing the picture.

Season the ground meat
Put the ground meat into a bowl, add the egg, and season with garlic, salt and pepper. Mix everything together, ideally kneading it well with your hands. Feel free to add your favorite spices too — we tried garam masala and the meatballs turned out great.

Shape the meatballs and bake
Shape the meat mixture into balls. Tuck a piece of gouda into the center of each one, then seal it up well and reshape into a neat ball. Arrange all the meatballs in a baking dish. Once the dish is full, bake in an oven preheated to 200°C for 20 minutes.
