Directions

- Chop the garlic finely. In a large pan, heat the oil and fry the finely chopped onions. Frequently stir it for 8 minutes. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and cook for 2 more minutes.
- In a bowl, add together the beans, egg, tomato purée, and spices. Mash until smooth. Stir in the almonds and sweetcorn with the thyme, a third of the chopped garlic and the balsamic onions.
- Mix well and shape into balls. Place it in the baking tray lined with oiled baking parchment.
- For the Tomato Zucchini-getti
- Preheat oven to 220 degrees. Bake the veggie meatballs for 30 minutes until firm.
- In a pan, add together the tomatoes, tomato purée, and balsamic vinegar. Cook with 2-3 tablespoons of water until pulpy. Stir in remaining garlic and zucchini-getti.
- Turn off the heat as you want to warm the noodles rather than cook them. Serve with the veggie meatballs. Enjoy!
