In an attempt to finish off my fresh pasta before I go training up north this weekend so went to a recipie I learnt when working in a gastro pub.

I used my usual Tomato and Chilli Sauce and cooked the pasta as I always do, but the meatballs is a first for this blog!


Serves 2 (6-8 meatballs)
  • 120g lean beef mince
  • 120g pork mince
  • 2 tablespoons of fine bread crumbs
  • 1/2 small onion,finely chopped
  • 1 medium egg
  • 2 table spoons of water
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 2 pinches of black pepper

Method

  1. Mix all indgredients together and form in balls about 2" in diameter
  2. Place on grill pan and grill on high for about 12-15min turning regularly
  3. Put in pan with sauce and warm through
  4. Serve with pasta

Anyway, got to keep this short as I have a lot of work still to do... oh the joys of being a student :(
