Ingredients

500 g Beef mince
50 g Breadcrumbs
1 Eggs
1 Onions, grated
30 g Parmesan, finely grated
3 g Mixed herbs
3 g Salt
500 g Passata

Method

Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Mix the mince, breadcrumbs, egg, grated onion, parmesan, herbs and salt with your hands until just combined.
Roll into about 20 small balls and place on a lined tray. Bake for 18 minutes, turning once, until cooked through.
For the sauce, warm the oil, soften the garlic for 30 seconds, then add the passata and sugar. Simmer for 10 minutes and blend until smooth if you like.
Cook the spaghetti in salted boiling water for 10 minutes and drain.
Add the meatballs to the sauce for the last couple of minutes, then serve over the spaghetti.
