Method

Dry-fry the meatballs in a large, non-stick, ovenproof frying pan over a medium heat for 8 minutes, shaking occasionally. Drain off the excess oil.
Preheat the grill to high. Add the wine, thyme and tomatoes and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in the chutney and stock and bring to the boil for 1 minute. Season.
Top with the potatoes and grill for 4-5 minutes until the potatoes begin to crisp. Remove the pan, sprinkle with the cheese and grill for a further 3-4 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Garnish with thyme leaves and serve with savoy cabbage.
