Serves: 4

Prep time: 15 mins, plus 30 mins chilling

Cooking time: 25 mins

Cals: 824

Sat fat: 18g

*500g beef mince

*1 heaped tsp garlic powder

*1 heaped tsp dried mixed herbs

*125g mozzarella, cut into chunks

*3 cloves garlic, crushed

*1 red onion, very finely diced

*1 x 500g carton tomato passata

*50ml tomato ketchup

*300g farfalle pasta

*70g Cheddar cheese, grated

*1 brioche roll, grated into breadcrumbs

*60g cornichons or gherkins, finely diced

1. In a bowl, mix the mince with the garlic and herbs. Season well with salt and pepper. Take a golf-ball-sized amount of mixture, and flatten it in the palm of your hand. Place a piece of mozzarella on top and mould the mixture around the cheese, then add more mince and shape it into a ball. Repeat until all the mixture has been used – you should have about 12 large meatballs. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.

2. Fry the meatballs for 5-6 minutes until browned, then set aside. In the same pan, fry the garlic and most of the onion over a medium heat for 5 minutes. Add the passata and ketchup. Simmer for 5minutes until thickened, then season.

3. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6. Cook the pasta according to packet instructions, drain, then toss in the sauce.

4. Put the pasta and meatballs into a baking dish and top with Cheddar, breadcrumbs and any leftover mozzarella. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Sprinkle on the cornichons and remaining onion, and serve.
