Spaghetti with Meatballs and Angel Hair Pasta

Spaghetti with MeatballsIntroducing My Spaghetti with Meatballs!

Making Spaghetti with Meatballs from scratch is about the best thing you can do for your pallet.  I mean the flavor is so much more luxurious than a simple can of sauce.  Though my children do love those spaghetti O’s, even my year old son couldn’t get enough of this recipe when I filmed it last night.  I have posted about this recipe in the past but there are a several differences.

IMG_0543First off, I’ve never included my Meat Ball Recipe, and I even mentioned in the original post that I wasn’t sure if I was ever going to, but here it is.  Second, the recipe before used canned ingredients, tomatoes and tomato paste, but today I’m re-introducing this recipe with all fresh ingredients, which I personally like better.  Also the option to add a red wine wasn’t exercised in this recipe, but it wouldn’t hurt one bit if you decide to add it.  Honestly, I would have but I was out.  And just so you know, and as far as I know, Spaghetti has never been made the way I make this Spaghetti with Meatballs recipe, because I use and reduce beef stalk(Bouillon).  That’s right!  This isn’t a recipe for vegetarians.

MEATBALLS
2 lbs Ground Beef
1 lbs Ground Sausage
2 eggs
1 chopped Onion
1/2 Chopped Julian Bell Pepper
1 handful of fresh chopped Parsley

1/2 pkg of Angel Hair pasta – Add Olive Oil and Salt to boiling water and cook noodles Al dente.

Combine all the ingredients for the meatballs in a bowl and mix thoroughly.  Mold 2 inch Meatballs on a pan and bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes.  Then Combine all the ingredients for the Spaghetti Sauce in a blender and Puree.  In a Hot pan add 2 tbsp of butter, 2 chopped green onions, then add the Sauce and bring to a boil.  Once the noodles are cooked al dente and strained, add some Olive Oil and place the Noodles in the Spaghetti Sauce.  Reduce the Sauce until the noodles have almost completely absorbed all the liquid, then kill the heat.  Add a shake of Thyme, Garlic Powder and some chopped black Olives, then plate your Spaghetti with Meatballs.

I'm just a regular guy in search of his bliss and I find that bliss in food and all of its many cultural differences. A very seasoned and experience chef taught me how to use my pallet to best serve and prepare a dish with all of its natural flavors from other foods before ever introducing “forced flavoring”, such as salt. My goal isn’t just to teach how to incorporate these products into simple gourmet dishes but to show, how easy, it can be done from anyone's Kitchen with cheaper, convenient substitutions that will not only blow your mind, but insure that most no one will be able to ever tell the difference!
