Ingredients
- 600g Quality Sausages
- 1 Large White Onion
- 1 Large Can of Chopped Tomatos
- Tomato Ketchup
- 120ml Hot Water
- 3 Cloves (or 3 Teaspoons of Smoked Garlic Puree)
- Small bunch of chopped Basil leaves
- Pork Stock Cube
- 2 Teaspoon of Italian Seasoning mix
- 1 Teaspoon of Smoked Paprika
- 1 Teaspoon of Aromat Seasoning
- 2 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
Instructions
De-skin the sausages and divide into small balls and set to one side
Finely chop chop the onion
Place a large heavy bottom saucepan on a high heat and add 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil
Once Oil starts to heat up add your Onions and fry for 1 minute
Next add 3 crushed Garlic Cloves or 3 Heaped Teaspoons of Smoked Garlic Puree and fry for a further 2 minutes
Add the Sausage Meatballs to the frying pan and fry until you start seeing the edges of the Meatballs turning brown and colouring
Add the Chopped Tomato and 5 Heaped Tablespoons of Tomato Ketchup to the saucepan and stir
Add the Pork stock cube into 120ml of boiling water and stir until dissolved, then add to the saucepan
Next add the Smoked Paprika, Aromat Seasoning, Italian Seasoning and 8 leaves of Fresh Basil finely chopped
Turn heat down to medium and leave uncovered to cook for 30 minutes, stirring every 5 to make sure nothing catches on the bottom. We want the liquid to reduce by at least half and leave a nice sauce consistency
Serve with Fresh Spaghetti, more freshly chopped Basil and a sprinkle of Pecorino Cheese
