Categories     Main Dish

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound ground beef ((500 grams))
1 large egg
3 tablespoons bread crumbs
3 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic minced
½-1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley
½ teaspoon salt
1-2 dashes black pepper
¼ cup milk (I used 2%) ((60 grams))
2 tablespoons olive oil
1-2 cloves garlic minced
1½ cups tomato puree/passata ((338 grams))
¼-½ teaspoon salt
4-5 fresh basil leaves (chopped)
½ teaspoon oregano
¼ cup water ((60 grams))

Steps:

  • In a large bowl mix together the ground beef, egg, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt and pepper. Slowly add the milk until you have a soft compact mixture.Form the mixture into small balls.
  • In a large pan add the olive oil, garlic, tomato puree/passata, salt, fresh basil, oregano and water. Mix to combine.
  • Add the meatballs and gently mix to cover them in sauce. Cover the pan and cook on low/medium (more low than medium) heat for approximately 15- 20 minutes, uncover and continue to cook for another 15-20 minutes or until cooked through and the sauce has thickened. If you find the sauce thickening too much then add a little more water.
  • Serve immediately as a main dish or over your favourite al dente pasta. Top with freshly grated parmesan cheese before serving. Enjoy!
