Ingredients
- 450g extra lean minced beef

PREPARATION
1/ Mix the beef , egg, mango chutney, coriander, parsley, pepper and onion and shape into golf ball sized balls, place on a tray and pop in the fridge to cool for a few minutes before cooking. Place in over for 15-18 minutes on a medium heat
2/ Melt the coconut oil in a sauce pan, add the chopped shallots, carrots until soft, 4-6 minutes, add the pepper , basil and top with pasata, carry on cooking on a low heat for 5-10 minutes
3/ Place the pasta into a pan of hot water, stir to separate the pasta and cook per packet instructions.

Top Tip: I love to over cook and these are especially lovely the following day in a pitta pocket, slice the meat balls in half, top with the sauce and place in a sandwich press for a few minutes and you have a super lunch, or eat cold with a salad.

The mango chutney adds a bit of spice to these but also helps to keep the meat beautiful moist . Enjoy making these 💗Clare with the Hair💗
