Spaghetti and Meatballs Recipe

Well here we go again with one of my favorite recipes, the awesome spaghetti with meatballs that is infused into a rich and creamy homemade tomato sauce.

I make and use a lot of minced meat and pork in my dishes because they come in many fat contents from the super lean to downright fatty. All this can be used to your liken as per taste and diet. As for me I like to use a medium ground beef for in this way I get the best of two world, light and full of flavor.

Now do not let this simple recipe fool you for it is really out of the world. The meatballs just good great blended into the tomato sauce and just when you think that it is perfect, then add the parmesan and then talk to me.

I know you will just fall in love with this oldie but great recipe, please let me know how yours turned out or did you add anything extra.

I like to use a medium ground beef for it gives off a better flavor and becomes more moist. Now if you want it more lean or because you are on a diet then I would go all the up to lean beef.

Make the onions are diced as small as possible so when you roll the meat into a ball nothing will be sticking out and coming out of the meat when you cook it.

The mixture has to have a consistency that will hold the meat into a ball without it falling apart. If you find it still a little to moist then add some more breadcrumbs.

Use a soup spoon for scooping up the meat mixture and in this way you will get a perfect measurement for your Meatball. Of course to can also make them smaller by using a teaspoon, and way you do it it will be awesome.

Make sure that you let the meatballs simmer in the tomato sauce for at least 20 mins. so the meat can be fully cooked in the inside and let the sauce incorporate into the meat.
