Instructions
If you are making your own meatballs mix to combine all the ingredients except the flour.
Roll the meat mixture into ping-pong size meatballs. Lightly dust with flour.
Fry the dusted meatballs in a little oil.
You want to get browning on all sides don't worry about cooking the meatballs as these will cook further in the marinara sauce.
Take out the meatballs after they have browned. In the same pan add Dolmio (marinara sauce), garlic, mixed herbs and salt & pepper. Simmer for a minute.
Add the browned meatballs back into the pan with the marinara sauce.
Simmer slowly until the meatballs have cooked through.
Assembly
Slice the baguette in half. Layer marinara sauce on the bottom layer. Followed by the meatballs.
Folowed by the cheese.
Melt the cheese under the grill. Add salad and other condiments.
