  1. SCRUMPTIOUS SPAGHETTI

    Boil the kettle. Fill a pot for the pasta with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and place over a high heat. Once boiling rapidly, cook the pasta for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain on completion and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.

  2. SMOKY POLPETTE

    Combine the mince, grated hard cheese, Smoked Paprika, ½ the diced Onion, and ½ the chopped parsley in a bowl and season. Roll the mince into golf-ball sized meatballs. Keep your hands wet to help prevent the mince from getting stuck to your hands!

  3. SAUCEY AS CAN BE

    Place a pot over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs for 3-4 minutes, shifting as they brown. Remove from the pan on completion. They do not have to be cooked through at this point. Return the pan to a low-medium heat with a drizzle of oil, the remaining diced Onion and the Italian Rub. Fry until the diced onion is translucent, about 1-2 minutes. Season lightly with salt. Add in the passata and cream, and bring to a simmer. When simmering, add the meatballs and simmer for 3-5 minutes, until well developed in flavour and the meatballs are cooked through.
