Preparation steps
For the meatballs, soak the bread in warm water.
Chop the onion and saute with bay leaf in butter until onion is soft but not browned. Squeeze excess water from bread. Remove bay leaf and puree onion with bread, ground meat, egg, mustard and parsley in a food processor. Season with salt and pepper.
With wet hands, form meat mixture into meatballs and cook in butter for about 10 minutes, turning until golden brown all over.
For sweet potato salad, cook potatoes in boiling salted water until knife-tender. Let cool slightly. Peel and cut into slices, then mix with chopped onion.
Mix together vegetable broth, vinegar and sugar in a saucepan, then season with salt and paper. Heat until sugar has dissolved, then poor over the potato mixture. Mix gently and let stand.
Cut cucumber into thin slices and toss with sweet potato salad along with the oil. Serve meatballs with the salad.
