Recipe Information
Step by step guide to making Turkey meatballs
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion, celery and carrots and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring until softened, adding the garlic just at the end. Leave to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas mark 6.
- In a bowl, mix the turkey mince and the veg with a wooden spoon and season well. Roll into 16 even-sized balls, each about the size of a walnut.
- Place on a baking tray and cook in the oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- About 15 minutes before the end of the meatball cooking time, cook the tagliatelle in boiling water for 12 minutes, until tender. Drain.
- Just before the pasta and meatballs are ready, pour the passata into a large pan and heat gently.
- Stir the meatballs into the sauce with the basil. Heat through and serve with the tagliatelle. Garnish with the remaining basil leaves.
Cook's tip: When mixing and rolling the meatballs, remember to wash hand thoroughly after handling raw meat.
