Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 400 g can tomatoes
  • 400 g can tomatoes
  • 20 g parmesan
  • 40 g egg white
  • 5 cloves garlic

Directions:

  1. Blitz celery, onion and garlic in a food processor (or chop as finely as possible) and set aside roughly 2 tbsp. Fry the mix in the oil for around 10 minutes with 1 tsp thyme.
  2. Add the tomatoes and fill one can with water, add, and set on a low simmer, seasoning with salt pepper and the sugar.
  3. Now prepare the meat; put everything thing in a bowl (grated parmesan and remaining thyme) and combine - not too much as this will lead to dense meat ball consistency.
  4. Take heaped teaspoon amounts and form into balls and place on a baking tray lined with parchment (about 48)
  5. Plop into tomato sauce trying to arrange in a circle (from the outside)
  6. Simmer for 30 mins then serve with accompaniment of your choice.
  7. To serve 8 this will be 6 meatballs per person ( I served to my hungry boyf and this seemed enough even for him!)
