This looked so good when he made it in one of his Throw Downs. Posting it here so I don't lose it. If you don't eat veal, you can omit it and increase the pork and beef to 3/4 pounds each. Also, don't pack the meatballs too tightly or they will be dense. The amount of pasta is based on 2 ounce servings.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large Spanish onion, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, smashed with some kosher salt to make a paste
Two 28-ounce cans plum tomatoes and their juices, pureed in a blender
One 16-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1 small can tomato paste
1 bay leaf
1 small bunch Italian parsley
1 Cubano chile pepper, chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 recipe Meatballs, recipe follows
1 recipe Spaghetti, recipe follows
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/2 pound ground pork
1/2 pound ground veal
1/2 pound ground beef
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped and sauteed
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup finely chopped Italian parsley leaves
1 cup pure olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
12 cups water
Salt
1 pound #8 or #9 spaghetti
Freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook until soft. Add pureed tomatoes with their juices, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, 1 cup water, bay leaf, parsley, Cubano pepper, and bring to a boil. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Reduce heat and cook until slightly thickened, about 30 minutes. Add Meatballs and let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and Meatballs are tender. Remove the bay leaf.
  • Add enough sauce to the drained pasta (that has been returned to the pot) to coat and continue cooking briefly, just until pasta is well combined with sauce. Serve pasta with Meatballs on top and garnished with fresh basil.
  • Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl, except olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roll the mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls. Heat the oil in large saute pan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, fry meatballs, in batches as needed, until golden brown, but not cooked through completely. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Bring salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add spaghetti and cook until al dente. Drain well in a colander, return to pot, and toss with sauce. Serve with meatballs and Parmesan on top.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the sauce will be. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes, good quality olive oil, and fresh herbs.
  • Brown the meat well: Browning the meat adds flavor and depth to the sauce. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the meat will steam instead of brown.
  • Simmer the sauce for a long time: The longer the sauce simmers, the better it will taste. Aim for at least 2 hours, or even longer if you have the time.
  • Add a touch of sweetness: A little bit of sugar or honey can help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of red wine or balsamic vinegar for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

This classic spaghetti and meatballs recipe is a delicious and hearty meal that is perfect for a family dinner. With a few simple tips, you can make a sauce that is flavorful, rich, and unforgettable. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try.
