Ingredients

Meatballs

250g Specially Selected Minced pork

One tablespoon wholemeal breadcrumbs

One tablespoon freshly grated parmesan cheese

One dessertspoon chopped fresh herbs

1 clove garlic crushed

1 egg yolk

Freshly ground pepper

Tomato sauce

1 tablespoon olive oil

Small onion finely chopped

Stick celery finely chopped

1 x 400g tin tomatoes (or passata)

40g grated carrot (½ small carrot)

Half a can of water

1 teaspoon tomato puree (optional)

Freshly ground pepper

Method

Heat the olive oil in a pan.

Sauté the onion and celery until they begin to soften.

Add the tomatoes, grated carrots, half a can of water and tomato puree,

if you are using it.

Bring to the boil and simmer gently for two – three minutes to break the

tomatoes down.

Add the meat balls do not stir (it is tempting) or the meat balls will break.

Put a lid on the pan and simmer until the meat balls have cooked (about 15

minutes, depending on their size). Season with pepper.
