Instructions

(Stops screen from sleeping)

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
2. In a food processor, pulse all patty ingredients, except courgette and oil, until roughly ground. Stir in courgette. Shape tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls, then transfer to a large plate and flatten slightly. Aim to make 5-6 patties per person.
3. Spray a large frying pan with oil and set over a medium heat. Pan fry patties in batches, 2-3 minutes each side, or until golden, then transfer to baking trays. Bake for 15-20 minutes, rotating trays halfway.
4. In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring, until tender. Add garlic and chilli and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add passata and 1/3 cup water. Increase heat to bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add basil, salt and sugar and cook for 1 minute.
5. To serve, dollop a couple of generous spoonfuls of spicy tomato and basil sauce on 6 plates. Divide patties among plates and garnish with extra basil.
