Instructions

1 Make sauce

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Pick and finely chop the basil leaves. Heat a large pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add half of the onion and fry with a pinch of salt for 3 min. Add the garlic and tomato paste, and fry for 1 min further. Add the tomato passata, measured water, honey and oregano and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 min until slightly thickened.

2 Make meatballs

Meanwhile, add the beef mince to a bowl. Add the remaining onion with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. With clean hands, knead until fully combined. Divide the mixture into 8 pieces and shape each piece into a meatball.

3 Bake

Add the meatballs to an oiled oven-proof skillet or baking dish. Add half of the basil to the tomato sauce. Top the meatballs with the tomato sauce, followed by the mozzarella. Bake for 15 min or until the meatballs are cooked through and the cheese is golden-brown.

4 Bake beans

Meanwhile, trim the green beans. Place the green beans onto a lined baking tray with the garlic onion powder, salt and a drizzle of oil. Toss to coat. Bake for 10 min or until they are crisp and tender.

5 Grate Parmesan

Meanwhile, grate the Parmesan.

6 Serve

Once ready, remove the meatball bake from the oven and allow to cool slightly for 5 min before serving. Garnish with the Parmesan and remaining basil. Serve the baked beans to the side.
