Pasta Marinara

Relatively quick to make. Boil some water, add some olive oil and let the pasta cook for about 20mins until it is soft. Strain and rinse with water.

Add the sauce and some ground black pepper. Then add shredded mozzarella and ready to serve!

Meatballs

Start with ground beef - lean is good.

Finely chop some onion and mix with the meat in olive oil, salt, pepper, an egg, garlic paste, ginger paste, dried parsley, oregano and basil and grated parmesan cheese. Add some crushed corn flakes or you can use bread crumbs instead.

Mix well and make small balls. Cover with marinara sauce and bake for 30-45mins until fully cooked.

Serve with pasta or make a sandwich!
