Hey guys i've made a terrible mistake by agreeing to cook a meal for my "friends" and i don't want to puss out. So do you have any suggestions what i could cook. I also have only 2 hours preparation time.

caramelise a mirepoix and garlic
in a separate pan, brown some beef mince
combine the two and add enough passata to just cover the mixture.
let it simmer on a low heat for 30 minutes.
cook some pasta until al dente. any will do.
add some olive oil and fresh basil to the sauce, then the cooked pasta, and let the whole mixture cook gently for another 5 minutes

Roast some pork loin, make mashed potatoes, pan-seared brussel sprouts, and make a gravy from the roasting pan. EZPZ

Sounds great and I might have to switch it up, but I like it in bacon fat with a few onions thrown over top.

I agree with pasta. A very simple one is chicken cacciatore.
>Brown salted skin on bone in thighs and/or legs. Remove.
>sautee onions, bell peppers and mushrooms until softened
>add garlic, tyme and rosemary for 1 minute.
>deglaze with wine
>add crushed canned san marzano tomatoes and chicken and simmer for 1 hour
>cook pasta 10 minutes before done
>Add pasta to chicken along with fresh basil and grated parmeggiano
Serve with a nice salad and garlic toast.

Since you are serving so many people, make a one portion meal for yourself some days before to get some experience, thing can go wrong and you will want to know how to avoid or solve them. This will give you some confidece the day of the big meal.

Order from a restaurant so it's delivered before your guests get there, replate it and claim you made it. Sorted.
