  • 1. First make the meatballs, Mix the onion, veal mince, thyme, breadcrumbs and milk together in a large bowl and add season to taste. Roll into golf ball sized meatballs.
  • 2. Re-heat oven to gas 4 / 180 c/ 160 c fan. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large frying pan and fry the meatballs in batches until browned all over to golden colour. Place on baking tray for 10 minutes whilst you make sauce. Or if you prefer bake the meatballs on tray with the olive oil for 20-25 minutes, turning over half way to ensure browned all over.

    A great recipe for mid week meal that still feels like a weekend treat. Both the meatballs and the sauce freeze well. Great with creamy mashed potatoes and red spiced red cabbage.
