Ingredients

  • 200g Spaghetti
  • 3 Slices Short Cut Bacon, sliced
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 2 cans diced Tomato
  • Splash of Worcestershire Sauce
  • 2 tsp. Brown Sugar
  • 2 cloves Garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp. Oregano
  • 1 tsp. Marjoram
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Meatballs:

  • 400g lean Beef Mince
  • ½ Apple unpeeled, grated
  • 1 tbsp. Tomato Relish
  • 1 Garlic, crushed
  • ¼ cup fresh Bread Crumbs
  • 1 tsp. dried Herbs
  • Splash Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Method

  1. Set your slow cooker to high.
  2. In a non-stick fry pan cook bacon until browned, place into slow cooker with all the other ingredients except for the meatballs. Mix so all incorporated. Place lid on to heat up.
  3. Meanwhile place all the meatball ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Mix with your hands. Divide mixture into 8-12 meatballs, rolling them so they are round. You can now either pan fry them just to brown the outside or you can just place them straight into the sauce in the slow cooker.
  4. Cook in the slow cooker for 2-3 hours. Occasionally use a spoon to coat them with the sauce.
  5. When you are ready to serve cook the pasta as per instructions. Pull out the meatballs and place the pasta into the sauce; mix so all the pasta has been coated. Serve into 4 bowls, placing the meatballs on top.
