INGREDIENTS

500g McCain Home Chips Crinkle Cut

400g lean turkey mince

4 tbsp porridge oats

1 egg, beaten

1 onion, finely diced

3 cloves of garlic, crushed

1 tbsp olive oil

2 celery sticks, finely diced

2 carrots, finely diced

2 x 400g tins of chopped tomatoes

2 tsp smoked paprika

½ tsp chilli flakes

1 tsp dried oregano

100g grated mozzarella

Salt and pepper

Low-fat cooking spray

METHOD

  • Preheat both baskets of your air fryer to 200C.

  • In a bowl, mix the turkey mince, porridge oats, beaten egg, one clove of crushed garlic and half a diced onion. Season well.

    Use clean hands to bring the mixture together into 12 plum-sized balls. Lightly spray all over with cooking spray and place into one air fryer basket.

    Tip the chips into the other basket. Set both to cook for 8 minutes.

  • While the meatballs and chips are cooking, make your sauce. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and add the diced celery, carrot, half onion and remaining garlic.

    Stir until softened, then add the chopped tomato, paprika, chilli and oregano. Allow to simmer, adding a splash or two of water to loosen the sauce.

  • Shake the chips in the air fryer, flip the meatballs over and cook for another 8 minutes.

    Once browned all over, stir the meatballs in the sauce. Season well with salt and pepper.

  • Serve the chips, topped with 3 meatballs per person, plenty of sauce and a handful of grated mozzarella. You could also serve it on a big sharing platter in the middle of the table.
