Make a big batch of our meatballs in tomato sauce and use the second half to create these saucy, cheesy taleggio subs. It’s a slightly more indulgent lunch made for the weekend…

Method
- Heat the grill to high. Mix the red onions and red wine vinegar in a small non-metallic bowl and set aside for 15 minutes to quick-pickle.
- Cut the submarine rolls in half lengthwise. Spoon 5-6 meatballs and a little tomato sauce onto the bottom half of each roll. Drain the red onions and scatter over the top of the meatballs, then top with the slices of cheese.
- Put the filled sub bases on a baking tray and grill for 5-6 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and the meatballs are hot, then top with basil. Put the top half of the sub, cut-side up, under the grill briefly to warm, then sandwich on top of the meatballs and halve to give 4 portions. Don’t forget napkins!
