- Place a drizzle of oil in a pan with the garlic and let the flavours infuse. Add the tomato purée, salt, and some basil leaves and cook with the lid on for 30 minutes.
- Soak the dry bread in warm water, then drain, squeeze and crumble into a bowl. Add the ground meat, egg, grated garlic, and 2 tbsp of grated Parmigiano to the bowl and season with salt. Mix thoroughly and shape into meatballs the size of a walnut.
- Fry the meatballs by submerging them fully in hot extra virgin olive oil. Cook until lightly golden, then drain on kitchen paper.
- Transfer the meatballs into the sauce, and let the flavours develop for a few minutes. Set aside a few ladlefuls of sauce and a few meatballs. Having cooked the Spaghetti no. 803 in salted boiling water to an al dente texture, add it to the pan and mix to combine.
- Plate up and top with some sauce meatballs.
