1

Combine mince, parmesan, courgette, garlic and basil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and mix well to combine. With wet hands divide mixture into even tablespoon-sized portions and roll meatballs (mixture will be soft but manageable).

2

Heat a large non-stick frypan over medium heat and cook meatballs for 3-5 minutes, turning until browned all over.

3

Add passata, stock and risoni to pan with meatballs and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered for 10 minutes, or until pasta and meatballs are cooked and sauce has thickened. 

4

Meanwhile toss salad leaves with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. 

5

Divide meatballs and sauce between bowls, top with extra basil and serve with salad.
