Method

Step 1 of 4

Place mince, onion, oregano and lemon zest in a large bowl. Season. Using clean, damp hands mix to combine well. Roll a heaped tablespoon of mince mixture into a ball. Repeat to make 20 meatballs.

Step 2 of 4

Heat oil in a large non-stick frypan over medium-high heat. Cook meatballs for 4-5 minutes or until browned.

Step 3 of 4

Add tomato passata, stock, zucchini, celery and carrots. Stir well, bring to the boil then reduce heat to a low simmer for 12-15 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through and sauce has thickened. Stir through spinach and season to taste.

Step 4 of 4

Sprinkle meatballs with feta and extra oregano. Serve with cous cous or rice, salad and lemon wedges.
