This recipe is dead easy and soooooo delicious. Just toss all the meatball ingredients together, roll them into balls, chuck ’em in a baking dish and pour two jars of passata over. Guaranteed kid heaven. For my gluten-free readers, try crumbing gluten-free bread, or I reckon they’d go fine skipping the bread all together. Let me know how it goes.
Recipe: Cheesy meatballs
1kg mince
1/2 onion, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups grated cheese
2 tablespoons worchestershire sauce
2 slices of bread, crumbed
2 eggs
2 teaspoons dried basil
2 700g jars passata (add a little water to the bottles and shake to get the last bits of sauce out)
METHOD: Preheat oven to 180C. Mix together all ingredients bar the passata in a bowl. Roll mince mixture into golf-ball sized meatballs. Place in an oven dish. Pour over passata. Bake for 30 minutes. Turn meatballs over. Bake for another 30 minutes. Serve with pasta, if liked, or with veggies.
