I'm making my pasta sauce from fresh,not a jar, same as the meat balls, sauce is easy, onions, olive oil, dried herbs, garlic, tin of chopped tomatoes, a little red wine, a touch of sugar, chilli flakes,,hey presto!

I've never really cooked meatballs from fresh before, I just assumed any onion bits in the middle of the meat would not cook properly as the heat would not pebetrate through enough, a burger is thinner than a meat ball so you would expect it to cook quicker and more thoroughly. God how boring do I sound, let's hope this meal is worth it.

I make the BEST meatballs in the world

1....Get a couple of slices of bread...cut off their crusts....soak them in a bit of milk

2....Fry a bit of onion in a pan in a bit of oil and a bit of red wine if you have it spare

3....Add the mincemeat to the soaked milky bread add salt and pepper

4....Pour in the fried onion

5....mix it all together with your clean hands

6....make a load of little meatballs...the smaller they are the less time they'll take to cook

7....Brown the meatballs in the pan you've used for the onion

8....Make a pint of instant gravy...heat your oven at 180 degrees

9....Put the browned meatballs into an oven proof dish and pour over the gravy

10...Cook in the oven for 30 mins

It sounds like a lot of work, but it's not and it's sooooo worth it, they're the nicest balls you'll put in your mouth
