MEATBALLS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs until lightly golden but not cooked through, 1-2 minutes (shifting as they colour). Remove from the pan and place in an ovenproof dish.
SAUCE
Trim the Leeks at the base & cut in half lengthways. Rinse the halved leeks and roughly slice. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil if necessary. When hot, fry the leeks until soft and lightly golden, 4-5 minutes. Add the grated garlic, the Spice Blend, and the rinsed thyme. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Mix in the Tomato Passata, and 100ml of water. Simmer until slightly reduced and thickening, 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat, discard the thyme sprigs, add a sweetener (to taste), and seasoning. Pour the sauce over the meatballs and scatter over the grated cheese.
CHEESY MOMENT
Place the ovenproof dish in the hot oven and bake until the cheese is melted and lightly golden, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven.
Wonton Wrappers
Return the pan, wiped down, to high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the Wonton Wrappers until crispy and golden, 30-60 seconds per side. Drain on paper towel and season.
