Method

For the Meatballs

In a large bowl, place the beef and pork mince, along with the parsley, onion and salt. Mix well, ensuring all the ingredients are well combined.

Line a large baking tray with parchment. Using damp hands, take a heaped tablespoon of the mince mixture, and roll into a ball. Place on the lined tray and repeat with remaining mixture.

Heat a little oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown the meatballs on all sides.

Remove from the pan, and set aside while you make the sauce.

For the Marinara Sauce

Return the frying pan to the heat, and all a little more oil. Add the onion and cook for three minutes until softened. Add the garlic and continue to cook for a further minute.

Add the passata, herbs, salt, sugar, and chilli if using, and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the sauce is reduced by 1⁄3 and thickened.

Once the sauce is thickened, add the meatballs back into the pan, stirring to coat with the sauce.

Cover with a tight-fitting lid, and cook for six to eight minutes or until cooked through.

To assemble the Sub

Preheat the oven to 200c

Cut the bread along the length of the sub, with the knife pointing downwards at a 45-degree angle. This will keep the fillings in place.

Place eight meatballs along the bottom half of the bread, spooning over a little extra marinara sauce.

Sprinkle some grated parmesan over the meatballs, followed by the mozzarella cheese.

Finally, place four slices of cheese, overlapping, on top of the meatballs.

Place the sub on a baking tray and place in the oven until warmed through, cheese is melted and bubbling, and the sandwich is slightly toasted. Remove the sub from the oven and serve immediately.
