These quick pork meatballs are gluten-free and include red quinoa and passata sauce. Using lean pork mince, it's a budget-friendly dinner that's low in fat.

Ingredients

500 g extra lean pork mince

1 cup cooked and cooled red quinoa

1 egg, lightly beaten

2 tbsp finely grated Parmesan cheese

3 cloves garlic, grated

⅓ cup chopped fresh basil

2 tsp olive oil

700 g jar passata

1 tsp caster sugar

Method

  1. Combine mince, quinoa, egg, parmesan, garlic and half the basil in a bowl. Season well with pepper. Form into 12 meatballs.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high. Add the meatballs and cook, turning often, for 5 min or until browned all over.
  3. Add the passata sauce, sugar and remaining basil, bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low, cover with a lid and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 min, or until meatballs are cooked through. Serve with steamed greens. Garnish with basil leaves.
