Ingredients: 400g beef mince; 200g pork mince; 50g almond flour; 2 eggs; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 1 handful fresh parsley, minced; 1 tsp dried oregano; 1 tsp salt; 800g crushed tomatoes; 1 onion, diced; 3 tbsp olive oil

Juicy beef and pork meatballs bound with almond flour and herbs, simmered in a rich tomato sauce. Browning the meatballs in batches before they go into the sauce is what develops a caramelised crust on the outside, rather than boiling them pale straight in the tomato.
