This is a weekend family meal for us that the children always enjoy. My son is fussy about lumps of onion and tomato so I purée the onions to make the base of the sauce. They have theirs with spaghetti and I have mine with veg. An #everydaykitchen meal ❤️

1

In a food processor blitz the onions, garlic and basil to make a rough paste. Add a tbsp of olive oil towards the end of blending to help bind it.
2

Gently cook the paste over a medium flame for about ten mins.
3

Then add the salt and paprika, and stir. Stir in the jarred sauce and the tinned tomatoes.
4

Add in the meatballs and simmer, partially covered, on the hob for 50 mins. Stir occasionally to prevent the base catching.
5

Cook your spaghetti according to the instructions on the packet. Taste the sauce before serving and season with salt and pepper to taste.
