Ingredients
500g Nobo Shells pasta
2 tbsp olive oil
Tomato Sauce
1 ½ kg peeled and diced tomatoes
1 cup tomato paste
½ onion
3 cloves garlic
2 ½ tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 basil leaves
Meatballs
400g minced meat
½ onion
4 cloves garlic
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
Directions
- Boil the water in a large pot (5 litres for every 500g of pasta). Add salt to taste.
- Add Nobo pasta to the boiling water and stir continuously to prevent it from sticking together. Cook for 5-6 minutes.
- Strain the pasta and set aside.
- Add a bit of olive oil to a pan and cook the garlic and onions for 2 minutes until soft, golden, and fragrant.
- To peel the tomatoes easily, blanch for 2 minutes, then peel and dice.
- Add the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and basil leaves to the onion and garlic mixture. Let the tomatoes fully cook and add the sugar and a bit of water. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until thick and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the minced meat, garlic, salt, pepper, and a bit of olive oil. Mix well until everything is combined, then shape the meat into medium-sized balls.
- In a frying pan, add some olive oil and fry the meatballs over low heat until cooked.
- In a serving dish, toss the pasta with the tomato sauce, add the meatballs, and serve hot.
