Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, garlic & herb seasoning, fine breadcrumbs and the egg. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of mixture and shape into small meatballs (4-5 meatballs per person). • Transfer to a medium baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and bake until golden, 15-20 minutes.
• While meatballs are baking, boil the kettle. • Cut carrot and zucchini into bite-sized chunks. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
• When veggies have 15 minutes remaining, half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Add fusilli and a pinch of salt and cook over high heat until tender, 11 minutes. • Drain, return to saucepan and drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking. • Remove meatballs from oven and stir through passata, the water, beefstyle stock powder and the brown sugar. • Return to oven to cook until sauce is slightly thickened, 5-8 minutes.
• When meatballs are done, add baby spinach leaves and roasted veggies. Stir to combine. • Divide fusilli between bowls and top with roast veggie tomato sauce and meatballs. Sprinkle over shaved Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
