A really simple method:

2. Spray a non stick pan and cook the meatballs until brown and sealed on the outside. Remove from the pan. 
3. Re-spray the pan and add the onions, add a drop of water if they start to stick, cook until reduced and soft. 
4. In a bowl mix the pasatta, herbs and mustard and add to the pan with the onions. 
5. Cook the linguini as per packet instructions. 
6. Add the mushrooms to the pan, cook for a few minutes and then add the meatballs to heat through. 
7. Drain the linguini and divide between two bowls, top with the meatballs and ragu and sprinkle with some Parmesan. Um um ummmmmmm
