  • 750g beef and pork mince
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 medium egg
  • pinch salt & pepper

Marinara Sauce

  • 2 cans chopped tomatoes
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Italian mixed herbs
  • pinch salt and pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp of oil

Garlic Bread

  • 1 large baguette
  • 200g butter, softened
  • 1/2 tsp Italian mixed herbs
  • 1 tsp lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 bulb garlic
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 240g grated mozzarella & cheddar mix

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4
  2. For the garlic bread, take 1 whole bulb of garlic and cut the top off to give access to all the cloves. Take a square of tinfoil big enough to wrap the garlic in, place the bulb in the middle, and wrap the tinfoil up the edges. Next pour 3 tablespoons of oil into the centre of the garlic and wrap it up so the oil doesn't escape. Place on a tray in the oven for 20 mins.
  3. For the meatballs, in a large mixing bowl place the minced beef and pork, finely chopped onions, a pinch of salt of pepper and 1 egg.
  4. Mix all the ingredients together by hand until well mixed, before making 16 golf ball sized balls from the meat mixture and place to one side.
  5. Take a large pan and preheat with a little oil. Add the meatballs to the pan, not too many at a time or it will take too much heat out of the pan and the meat won’t brown on the outside. Brown the meatballs all over for about 3/4 minutes. Once browned, place in a large ovenproof dish and repeat until all meatballs are sealed and browned.
  6. Squeeze the roasted garlic from skin, saving 2 cloves for the sauce.
  7. In the meatball pan, soften the onions. When the onions have gone translucent, stir in the 2 squeezed garlic cloves. Add the chopped tomatoes, Italian herbs and season to taste before simmering for 5 minutes.
  8. Pour the marinara sauce over the meatballs. Cover the dish with tin foil and place in the oven for 40 mins.
  9. Place the remaining garlic into a bowl, add the softened butter and herbs. Mix throughly together and sit to one side.
  10. Cut the baguette into 4 portions, slice the portions in half lengthways.
  11. Spread half of the garlic butter onto the bottom portions of baguette then spoon the meatballs into the middle of the portions with a small amount of the sauce. Sprinkle some of the cheese.
  12. Serve whilst warm with the remaining sauce.
