DREAMY SPAGHETTI RECIPE - (5/5)



Dreamy Spaghetti Recipe - (5/5) image

Provided by á-159669

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 8oz pkg. spaghetti
3 tbsp melted butter
1 1/2-2 lbs. ground chuck
2 8oz carton sour cream
1 8oz pkg. cream cheese
1 12oz carton cottage cheese
1/3 cup chopped onions
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Cook spaghetti until just tender, not well done. Brown ground chuck in 1 tbsp butter. Add salt, pepper and tomato sauce. In a bowl, combine cottage cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, and onion. Drain spaghetti. Using a 2 qt. casserole, place spaghetti in the bottom; add ½ mixture of cheeses and ½ of the meat. Add remaining mixture in the same order with meat mixture on top. Pour 2 tbsp. melted butter over top and bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. *May be doubled, tripled, or frozen. *I used 2 14 oz. cans of tomato sauce (or one large can) and 16 oz. cottage cheese. Use a 9x13 pan and only do one layer.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your spaghetti. Look for ripe tomatoes, flavorful garlic, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't overcook the spaghetti: Spaghetti should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked spaghetti will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Use a large pot: A large pot will allow the spaghetti to cook evenly and prevent it from sticking together.
  • Add salt to the pasta water: Salting the pasta water helps to flavor the spaghetti and prevents it from becoming bland.
  • Don't rinse the spaghetti after cooking: Rinsing the spaghetti after cooking will remove the starch, which helps to thicken the sauce and make it cling to the spaghetti.
  • Use a good quality tomato sauce: A good quality tomato sauce will make a big difference in the taste of your spaghetti. Look for a sauce that is made with fresh tomatoes and has a rich, flavorful taste.
  • Add fresh herbs to the sauce: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, can add a lot of flavor to the sauce. Add them to the sauce just before serving.
  • Grate your own Parmesan cheese: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese has a much better flavor than pre-grated cheese. It will also melt more smoothly into the sauce.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make a spaghetti dish that is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give spaghetti a try. You won't be disappointed.
