One Pan Pasta

 Ingredients

1 tbsp rapeseed oil

12 meatballs (300g)

1 onion, finely chopped

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

2 tbsp ketchup

2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes

1 large bunch of basil, finely chopped, plus a few whole leaves

225g dried spaghetti

Method

Heat the oil in a deep, wide frying pan or casserole dish over a medium-high heat. Tip in the meatballs and cook for 5 mins, turning until browned all over. Add the onion and garlic, and fry for 8 more mins until softened.

Add the ketchup, chopped tomatoes, chopped basil and 400ml water to the pan and bring to the boil. Add the spaghetti and cook for 10-12 mins, stirring occasionally. When the pasta is cooked and the sauce has reduced, season and sprinkle with the basil leaves to serve.
