Method

  1. 1

    Finely grate the onion and crush the garlic. Mix the pork mince, grated onion, half the garlic, dried oregano, breadcrumbs and egg in a bowl. Season well and shape into 16 meatballs.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large frying pan and fry the meatballs for 10 to 12 minutes, turning often, until browned all over and cooked through with no pink remaining. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining oil and garlic to the pan for 30 seconds, then stir in the tinned chopped tomatoes. Season well and simmer for 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Return the meatballs to the sauce and simmer for a further 5 minutes until piping hot throughout.

  5. 5

    Serve hot with the sauce spooned over.
