Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To a large bowl, add beef and Italian breadcrumbs. Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) pepper, then combine. Roll mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs.
- On the prepared baking sheet, arrange meatballs. Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min or until browned and cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, trim green beans.
- Peel, then halve shallot. Cut half the shallot into 1/4-inch slices. Cut the other half into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Halve the buns. Arrange on an unlined baking sheet, then set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add green beans, sliced shallots and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until water evaporates.
- Add half the garlic spread. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until spread is melted and green beans are tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer beans to a small bowl, then cover to keep warm.
- Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to the same pan (used in step 3), then chopped shallots. Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until tender.
- Reduce heat to medium-low.
- Add tomato sauce base. Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
- Add crushed tomatoes and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Once meatballs are cooked through, add meatballs to sauce. Sprinkle over cheese. Cover and remove the pan from heat. Set aside 2-3 min, until cheese is melted.
- Meanwhile, toast buns for 3-4 min, until browned. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn.)
- Spread remaining garlic spread over buns, then cut into four equal pieces.
- Divide meatballs and sauce between bowls.
- Divide green beans and garlic sticks between plates. Use the garlic sticks to dip.
