Meatballs make such a satisfying meal, and I love how this meatball pasta bake recipe is so simple, but still packed full of flavour and makes a popular family meal.
I’m all for time-saving in the kitchen, and I think that a really successful way to make a super, flavoursome meatball sauce is to just blend all my sauce ingredients together raw, and then simmer them together! Not only does this save on chopping time, but the garlic blended into the tomato like this adds such deep flavour.
There are only has 3 ingredients in the sauce (and if I’m doing it for the kids I leave the chilli out), but it tastes amazing. I think one of the reasons for this is that you whizz the garlic raw into the tomatoes rather than pre-frying it, so that flavour just spreads sweetly throughout all of the sauce.
