• 1. For the meatballs: heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large deep frying pan, add the onions and cook gently until softened but not coloured. Add the garlic and anchovy fillets, if using. Increase the heat and cook for a few minutes. Spoon half the onion mix into a large bowl and the other half into a small bowl. 2. When the reserved onions in the large bowl have cooled, add the beef mince, breadcrumbs, oregano and egg with plenty of seasoning. Mix with your hands, then using wet hands shape into 20 meatballs. Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan and brown the meatballs in batches, adding more oil, as you need - the meatballs should be almost cooked through. Spoon the meatballs out of the pan on to a plate. 3. Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan oven 160°C, Gas mark 4. 4. For the rich tomato sauce: wipe the frying pan clean and return the remaining cooked onions to the pan.

Return the meatballs to the pan. 6. Scatter the mozzarella on top. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, or until the meatballs are piping hot and cooked through, and the cheesey top is golden and bubbling. Serve with a tomato and cucumber salad.
