PASTA WITH MEATBALLS AND HERB SAUCE
Before you use herbs as a main ingredient - it helps to know which ones work on a grand scale. Parsley, obviously, works in abundance: it's clean-tasting, pleasantly grassy and almost never overwhelming. You can add literally a bunch (bunches!) of it to salad, soup, eggs, pasta, grains or beans. The same is largely true of basil, and you can use other mild herbs - chervil, chives, cilantro, dill, shiso - by at least the handful. (Mint is also useful but will easily take over a dish if you add too much of it. But all of these are great for making herb pastes, or pestos, alone or in combination. Use the same technique you use for basil pesto.)

Steps:
- Mix together the basil, parsley and chives. Soak the bread in the milk for 5 minutes, then gently squeeze any excess milk from the bread; discard the milk. Combine the bread with the meat, 1 cup of the herbs and some salt and pepper; shape the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Put 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the meatballs in a single layer (work in batches if necessary). Cook, turning occasionally, until brown on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Cook the pasta in the boiling water until tender but not mushy. While the pasta is cooking, purée 11/2 cups of the herbs with 4 tablespoons oil, the garlic and some salt and pepper in a mini food processor or blender; leave the sauce rough or add a little water if you want it smoother. Drain the pasta, reserving about a cup of its cooking liquid. Toss the pasta with the herb sauce and most of the remaining herbs, adding the reserved liquid if the mixture seems dry. Top with the meatballs, garnish with Parmesan and the last of the herbs and serve.

Steps:
- Mix the mince, apple and fennel seeds in a bowl. Divide and roll into 24 cherry tomato-sized balls. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Cook the meatballs until golden brown and cooked through. Heat a large pan of water and cook the pasta following pack instructions.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce. Set aside a handful of spinach, 4 tbsp peas and half the avocado for later. Pour hot water over the rest of the peas to defrost them, then drain well. Whizz the defrosted peas, spinach, avocado, basil and parmesan in a blender with 100ml pasta water, adding more if needed, to make sauce. Season well.
- Add the reserved frozen peas to the pasta for the last min of cooking. Drain, saving some of the water, and tip the pasta into the meatball pan. Add the sauce and cook for a minute or 2 until hot, adding more seasoning or pasta water if you need to. Serve a salad of spinach and avocado on the side and top the pasta with extra parmesan for adults, if you like.

PASTA WITH GREEN MEATBALLS AND HERB SAUCE
Steps:
- 1. Combine the herbs into a bowl to mix well. Soak the bread with the milk for 5 minutes, then remove and lightly squeeze out the milk. Break the bread up into a bowl, then combine with the ground meat, 1 cup of the herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Work the mixture with your hands until well-combined, adding a little of the milk, if necessary, to help bind the ingredients into a slightly sticky consistency. Shape into 1-inch meatballs. 2. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and cook the pasta until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water. 3. In the meantime, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the meatballs (in batches to avoid crowding) and cook until brown on all sides, 5-10 minutes. Remove to a plate and reserve the pan drippings. 4. In a small food processor, combine the remaining herbs, remaining olive oil, garlic, a pinch of salt and pepper, and 1/4 cup of water. Process until pureed, and season to taste if necessary. 5. Put the drained pasta into the skillet where the meatballs were cooked, along with a splash of the pasta cooking water. Add the herb sauce and toss well over low heat, adding more pasta water if necessary to create a smooth sauce that clings to the noodles. Season to taste. Divide among bowls, top with the meatballs and Parmesan, and serve.

Steps:
- Cook pasta, drain and put on the side
- For the sauce:
- In a sauce pan place cream of mushrooms and skim milk
- When it boils, mix in heavy cream and crushed garlic
- Put bit more black pepper.
- You don't need salt because cream of mushroom soup is already salty enough
- Let it get thick on low heat for about 5 minutes.
- Pour over the fettuccini and cover the pan.
- For the Meatballs:
- In a ground turkey grate onion (using cheese grater) minced garlic and put bread crumbs.
- Season it with salt and pepper.
- Put bit of oil and form a little balls.
- Preheat the oven on 400F/200C
- Line them on a parchment paper and bake for about 20 minutes.
- When they are finished, put baked meatballs in the pot together with pasta and sauce.
- For the mushroom:
- You can place mushrooms on the grill, but this time I cook them on the stove in a non-stick pan for few minutes on both sides. I used chopped scallions for taste and for just splash of green color..
- Enjoy!
