To Make the Maple Chili Glazed Meatballs
Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400ยบF. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper; set aside.

To make the meatballs, combine eggs, milk, breadcrumbs, onion, salt, pepper and herbs in a large bowl. Mix in the ground beef with your hands until everything is evenly distributed. Let sit for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Shape beef mixture into balls, about 1/3 cup each. Place on prepared sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes.

For the Parsnips
ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds parsnips, peeled and sliced
- Salt
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 cloves garlic
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- Parsley, for garnish
- Black pepper
To Make the Parsnips
Step 1
Put parsnips in a pot. Season with salt and pour in milk and heavy cream. Add garlic, thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer. Cook until fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 2
Use a slotted spoon to transfer parsnips into a food processor. Add butter and just enough milk mixture from cooking the parsnips to puree and achieve whipped cream-like texture.
Step 3
Season with salt and black pepper. Garnish with fresh parsley.
