Spaghetti with Meatballs la famiglia


You may use just about any spaghetti sauce you can use. (Stewed tomatoes, Garlic and herb tomato sauce, Italian tomato sauce…etc).

MEATBALL:
1. Mix the following ingredients in a bowl.
2. Half a kilo of ground chuck.
3. Grated 1 large white onion.
4. Minced 3 cloves of garlic.
5. Mixture of ½ cup bread crumbs soaked in ½ cup fresh milk.
6. Minced ½ cup of flat leaf parsley.
7. One egg yolk.
8. One cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
9. Salt, pepper and 1 tsp of nutmeg.
10. Italian essence (1 tsp dried basil, 1 tsp dried oregano and 1 tsp dried thyme).
11. Fry in 2 tsp olive oil until golden brown. Don’t expect the meatball to be cooked.
12. Continue to cook the meatball by adding the sauce and simmer until cooked.

Top onto any kind of pasta you like (spaghetti, penne, linguini, fettuccini...etc.) and sprinkle with generous amounts of freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.
