Fry the pancetta until golden then in the same pan add the onion, garlic and rosemary and cook over a medium heat for a further 3 mins. Add the tomatoes, water and chilli powder then return the meatballs to the pan. Simmer for 15-20 mins or until the meatballs are cooked through. Season with Kikkoman Soy Sauce, pepper and the sugar.
