Number Of Ingredients 9

4 sausages
300g passata
1 tbsp tomato ketchup
1 tsp fennel seeds
½ tsp red chilli flakes
½ tsp dried oregano
2 baked sweet potatoes
50g grated cheddar or mozzarella
pinch of chilli flakes

Steps:

  • Squeeze out the meat from the sausages and roll it into eight balls. Fry the meatballs in a little olive oil until golden all over. Add the passata, ketchup, fennel, chilli flakes and oregano and bubble without a lid for 8-10 mins until the sauce thickens and the meatballs are cooked through. Season well.
  • Heat the grill to high. Split the baked sweet potatoes and place them in a small, foil-lined baking dish. Fill the potatoes with the meatballs and sauce, then top with the cheese. Grill for about 2 mins until the cheese melts. Top with the chilli flakes.
