Instructions

1 Prep

Grate the zucchini into a bowl. Add the beef mince, garlic onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Mix with clean hands. Shape into 12 meatballs. Refrigerate. Peel and finely chop (or grate!) the onion, garlic and carrot.

Tip! Refrigerating the meatballs helps them to keep their shape.

2 Brown meatballs

Heat a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the meatballs and fry for 3-4 min or until starting to brown. Once browned, carefully transfer to a plate and set aside. Reserve the pan.

3 Fry base

Return the reserved pan to a medium-low heat with another drizzle of oil. Add the onion and carrot with a pinch of salt and fry for 5 min until softened.

4 Boil pasta

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Once boiling, add the spaghetti and cook for 8-10 min until 'al dente' or cooked to your liking. Drain

5 Finish sauce

Once softened, add the tomato paste, garlic and oregano to the onion. Cook for 1 min further. Add the peeled plum tomatoes (breaking them up), sugar, water, stock cube, balsamic vinegar and meatballs and simmer, covered, for 6 min or until the meatballs are cooked through. Season with salt and pepper.

6 Serve

Meanwhile, pick a few basil leaves for garnish and finely chop the rest. Grate the Parmesan. Toss the pasta and chopped basil in the sauce. Serve in deep bowls and top with the Parmesan and basil leaves.
