Method
Step 1
Place potato in a large saucepan and cover with water. Cover and bring to the boil over high heat. Uncover and cook for 10 mins or until tender. Drain and return to the pan. Use a potato masher or fork to mash until smooth. Add the butter and stir to combine. Season. Cover to keep warm.

Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook the meatballs, turning, for 4 mins or until brown all over and cooked through. Transfer to a heatproof bowl. Cook leek in the pan, stirring, for 2-3 mins or until tender. Add tomato, lentils and 1 cup (250ml) water. Bring to a simmer. Return meatballs to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 mins or until mixture thickens.
