Ingredients
- 250 g spaghetti
- 400 g beef Ground
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 1 garlic minced
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp cheese grated
- 1 tsp oregano Dried
- 400 g tomato Canned, Chopped
- 1 tsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp sugar
- salt
- black pepper
- basil For Garnish, fresh leaves
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully combined.
- Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
- In a large frying pan, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until they are browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the pan and set them aside.
- In the same pan, add the canned chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
- While the sauce is simmering, cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Once the tomato sauce has thickened, return the cooked meatballs to the pan. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the meatballs to soak up some of the sauce.
- Serve the spaghetti topped with the meatballs and tomato sauce. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
