Pork meatballs in tomato sauce

A week or so ago I bought some chicken mince with an idea of making meatballs in tomato sauce to freeze for eating in isolation. I made them and they were delicious. But I ate them all over a few days. Whoops.

Since then I have looked unsuccessfully for chicken mince (yes I know I could mince my own but...lazy). Finally I gave in and bought some pork mince. Delicious meatballs! I hope I manage to freeze some of these!!

Pork rissoles with plum sauce

I went shopping looking for chicken mince with an idea of cooking chicken balls. But there was no chicken mince to be had and my eye caught some pork mince. Well, I thought, I am sure I can think of something to cook with that. The end result was pork rissoles made with sage and garlic and spring onion and with  plum sauce for dipping. They were lovely: crisp on the outside but soft inside and all the flavours went together well! Yummy.
