Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
- Place onion, garlic and olive oil in a (approx) 30 x 25 cm / 12 x 10" pan (Note 4). Mix, spread out, then bake for 8 minutes. (Start the meatballs)
- Remove from oven, add remaining Sauce ingredients. Mix.
- Place rack on top of pan.
- Turn oven up to 200C/390F.
- Place the bread and onion in a large bowl. Mix to combine so the onion juice soaks the bread, set aside for 3 minutes. Bread should disintegrate into mush - if not, add a splash of milk or water to help it along.
- Add all the remaining Meatball ingredients except oil spray. Use you hands to mix well.
- Measure out very generously heaped tablespoons and roll into firm balls. It should make around 20 - don't make them too small, they will cook too quickly.
- Place meatballs on the rack, ensuring they are positioned over the pan so the juices will drip into the Sauce.
- Spray generously with oil.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Optional: flick to grill/broil on high for 2 minutes at the end, to get better browning.
- Transfer meatballs from rack into the Sauce. Stir to coat meatballs in Sauce.
- Serve with spaghetti or other pasta of choice, garnished with fresh parsley and parmesan.
