Prep:25minCook:5min
The sandwich of dreams! There's something so comforting about this sub, almost as if a homestyle Italian meal has been served on a buttery toasted bun instead of a plate! It has a rich tomato sauce, melty bocconcini balls and is topped with fresh basil leaves.

Step 1
GET YOUR WAGYU ON Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs for 4-6 minutes, shifting as they colour, until browned but not cooked through. Add the cooked chopped tomato, the rub, and seasoning. Leave to simmer for 8-10 minutes until slightly reduced, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
LET THEM EAT BREAD! Cut the baguettes in half, making sure to not to cut all the way through. Spread butter over the cut-sides of the bread.
Pop on a baking tray, cut-side up. Increase the oven to the grill setting or the highest temperature. Pop the tray of baguettes into the hot oven and bake for 3-4 minutes until the butter is melted and the baguettes are warmed through. Watch carefully as they can burn easily!
Step 3
CHEESY SUB Once the baguettes are toasted, remove the tray from the oven. Fill the baguettes with the meatballs, tomato sauce, and the drained bocconcini balls. Return the tray to the oven and cook the meatball subs for 2-4 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
Step 4
TOSS UP In a bowl, combine the rinsed green leaves, the lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice (to taste), seasoning, and a drizzle of oil.
Step 5
. A BITE OF PERFECTION Top the meatball sub with the picked basil leaves. Serve with the zesty salad and a lemon wedge. Dig in, Chef!
