Briefly sauté the spinach and drain any excess moisture before adding it to the mashed potatoes. This will keep the puree firm.

Make the meatballs small enough to ensure they cook evenly.

Brown the meatballs well before adding the sauce to enhance the flavor and texture.

Let the sauce thicken fully before serving.

Taste the mashed potatoes before adding the spinach to adjust seasoning if necessary.
