1. Combine mince, onion, garlic, sage, parmesan and breadcrumbs in a bowl and season to taste. Roll tablespoons of mixture into meatballs. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add meatballs and cook, turning frequently, until browned all over. Transfer to a plate and cover in foil to keep warm.
2. Heat remaining oil in frying pan and add the onion and cook for 2 minutes or until just soft. Add mushrooms and rosemary and continue cooking for a further 2 minutes or until mushrooms are just tender. Stir in Val Verde Tomato Passata, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Season to taste and return meatballs to pan. Heat until meatballs are heated through.
