Description
Cheesy Oven Baked Meatballs made gluten free and baked in one dish in the oven, super easy!
Ingredients
- 1kg pork or beef mince (or a mixture)
- 1 cup grated mozzarella
- ½ cup grated parmesan
- 1 egg
- 250g / 1 cup tomato pasta sauce ( I like to use Crunch Preserves)
- 1 cup grated mozzarella for topping
- fresh basil or parsley to serve
Instructions
Pre heat oven to 200°C.
In a large bowl mix together the mince, mozzarella, parmesan and egg. Scoop out large tablespoons of mixture, roll into balls and lay in a single layer in a baking dish. You may need to spray the dish lightly with cooking oil first.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from oven and drain any grease. Pour over the pasta sauce and top with mozzarella. Bake an additional 5-10 minutes until cheese has melted.
Garnish with fresh parsley or basil and serve.
Notes
Make these meatballs larger than you like them as they do shrink quite a bit when they cook.
