method
  1. To make the meatballs, combine mince, ale, parsley, breadcrumbs, diced onion, garlic, eggs, cumin, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix well. Once combined, roll into shape, about the size of a golf ball. Place on a tray and set aside.
  2. To prepare the sauce, heat a shallow saucepan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
  3. Once heated add the sliced onions and cook until browned. Add the passata, beef stock and sugar into the fry pan and simmer on low. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. While the sauce is simmering, heat a second fry pan with olive oil and sear the outside of the meatballs to lock in the flavour - about 1 minute each side. You may need to do this in batches.
  5. Once seared place into the tomato sauce. Finally, when all the meatballs are in the tomato sauce, spoon over the sauce and leave on low to simmer for 15 minutes, or until cooked through. Enjoy!
