Assembly …

...and the leftovers.

Okey dokey, slice the sub, spread the sauce and add the meatballs on one side.

On the other side add mayo or mango chutney (to suit your choice of meatballs or koftas), then layer salad ingredients of your choice, then finish with mozzarella or paneer and top with optional bacon and eggs.

There's a meal!

As for the leftover meatballs and tomato sauce and the koftas and curry sauce, the good news is you can freeze them for another day.

For the Italian meatballs and tomato sauce, defrost in the fridge. When defrosted cook pasta of your choice – as a guide allow 90g of penne pasta for 180g of cooked per serving.

Whilst your pasta is cooking heat the meatballs and tomato sauce together gently. Drain the pasta and add it to your meatballs and sauce. Serve!

For the koftas and curry sauce defrost in the fridge. Heat the koftas and curry sauce together gently for 10/15 minutes and 2 minutes before the end of heating time microwave steamed pilau rice – as a guide a 280g pack from Aldi serves 2. Serve!

The joys of batch cooking – two ideas for a “sub” weekend treat and leftovers for a quick and easy, but home cooked mid-week meal.
