SPAGHETTI STUFFED MEATBALLS



Spaghetti Stuffed Meatballs image

Saw this idea on rachel ray, but it was one gigantic meatball, so I rewrote it to indivdual size meatballs. They are still quite large, one meatball is more then filling for your appetite!

Categories     European

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 Meatballs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch salt
3 lbs ground beef
3 eggs
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs (seasoned or plain works)
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons white pepper or 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
3 teaspoons oregano
3 tablespoons parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder (or cloves whichever you prefer)
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 lb spaghetti noodles
1 (48 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
1 -2 cup flour

Steps:

  • Bring a dutch oven 1/2 full of water to a boil. (I use a little EVO and salt. one the salt helps quicken the boil time , and two the oil helps the noodles from sticking together.).
  • Place your noodles in the boiling water and cook until they are soft. Once done, strain the noodles, and mix the noodles with the sauce. Set aside to cool, well be stuffing the meatballs with the spaghetti and sauce.
  • Combine ground beef, eggs, milk, bread crumbs, sea salt, white pepper, oregano, parsley, garlic. and parmesan cheese, until its well mixed together.
  • Now there are a few ways to hollow out your patties, either with a small bowl or ramekin. I used a hamburger stuffer, then reshaped the meatball, so its round and not a patty. Either way works, once again that is up to your discretion and whatever you find easiest.
  • After your patty is shaped, spoon in about 1/2 cup of cooked spaghetti and sauce in your hollowed patty. Then place the other patty on top and seal generously. Then roll the meatball in flour to help the seal the patties together.
  • Place your formed meatballs in a shallow baking pan, spoon extra sauce over each meatball, and let a layer of sauce cover the pan. Sprinkle some extra parmasean cheese over each meatball. Approximately every 15 minutes baste each meatball generously with sauce and cook at 350 - 400 degrees for about 45 - 60 minutes.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
3 tablespoons (40 grams) extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 large onion (5 1/2 ounces/160 grams), sliced
5 garlic cloves, chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
One 28-ounce (794 grams) can whole plum or San Marzano tomatoes, crushed by hand
One 15-ounce (425 grams) can tomato sauce
1 pound (453 grams) spaghetti
1/4 cup (15 grams) fresh basil leaves, torn
1/2 cup (40 grams) grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
Meatballs (recipe follows)
1 pound (453 grams) 80/20 ground beef
1 pound (453 grams) hot Italian sausage, removed from casings
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup (84 grams) plain dry breadcrumbs
1 cup (40 grams) grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 large onion (5 1/2 ounces/160 grams), grated on the coarse holes of a box grater
1/4 cup (15 grams) chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 garlic cloves, chopped
8 small mozzarella balls/ciliegine (about 15 grams each)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • For the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, dried oregano and crushed red pepper and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add both types of canned tomatoes and 1 cup of water from the pasta pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer until thickened and flavorful, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Once the meatballs are browned and the sauce has thickened, nestle the meatballs into the sauce and spoon a little of the sauce over each meatball. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer, cover and simmer while the pasta cooks, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook until al dente. Drain the spaghetti and place on a platter. Spoon some sauce onto the spaghetti and toss to coat. Nestle the cooked meatballs into the noodles. Top with desired amount of sauce, a drizzle of olive oil, the fresh basil and grated Parmesan cheese, for serving.
  • Place an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine the beef and sausage in a large bowl and spread out the meat with a wooden spoon. Season with salt. Add the eggs, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, onion, parsley and garlic in a large bowl and mix well with your hands to combine. Divide into 8 equal balls. Use your thumb to hollow out the center of a ball so it resembles a bowl. Stick a mozzarella ball inside and press to seal the mozzarella inside the meat mixture. Roll into a ball and place on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining meat mixture and mozzarella.
  • Bake until the meatballs are well browned, 18 to 22 minutes. (They will cook more in the sauce).

BISON MEATBALLS AND SPAGHETTI



Bison Meatballs and Spaghetti image

Tender bison meatballs with tomato and mushroom sauce over whole grain spaghetti. The sauce is chunkier than regular tomato sauce and is great even without the meatballs. I love serving this with Pillsbury® garlic bread sticks.

4 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into 20 (1/2-inch)
