Method

Meatballs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meatball Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Using your hands, form the mixture into meatballs about 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Bake the Meatballs

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the meatballs for 20-25 minutes, until they are cooked through and browned on the outside.

Fries

  1. 4

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and cut the potatoes into fries. You can leave the skin on for extra flavor.

  2. 5

    Season the Fries

    In a large bowl, toss the cut fries with olive oil, salt, and paprika until evenly coated.

  3. 6

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the fries on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Take the baked meatballs and place them into each sub roll. Spoon marinara sauce over the meatballs generously.

  2. 8

    Add Cheese and Basil

    Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the marinara sauce, and add fresh basil leaves.

  3. 9

    Final Bake

    Place the assembled sandwiches back in the oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
