Recipe: Spaghetti

Because its' Christmas and the Spaghetti pack is cheap.

Spaghetti Madness


Ingredients:

  • 2 large onions minced
  • 5 cloves of garlic minced, preferably large also
  • salt and pepper
  • sugar
  • water
  • 5 pcs of Jumbo Hotdog, sliced thinly :D
  • 1/2 kg ground meat
  • oil
  • 1 kg Spaghetti Sauce
  • 1 kg Spaghetti Pasta

Preparation:

THE SAUCE
  1. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large pot (good for 1 kilo of sauce).
  2. Sautee the garlic and half of the onions.
  3. Once slightly brown, add the ground meat ( I usually use meatballs in my spaghetti, so this is actually a trial run).
  4. Stir lightly for 10 minutes or until you feel that meat is cooked.
  5. Add 1-2 cups water and wait for it to boil.
  6. Once boiling, check if the ground meat is cooked and add the hotdog, and the remaining onions.
  7. Stir well and add the Spaghetti Sauce. (I also usually add Tomato Sauce and season again, but not this time :( )
  8. Bring the sauce to a boil and salt and pepper and sugar, depending on how sweet you want your sauce.

THE PASTA
  1. Boil a large amount of water in a pot, bout 3 liters since the pot is almost full.
  2. Once boiling, add 2 tbsp of salt and 2 tbsp of oil.
  3. Add the 500 gram of pasta.
  4. Cook the pasta for 10 minutes stirring occasionally.  (For al dente, do not cover the pot)
  5. Remove from the fire and strain. Wash with cold water.

NOW TO EAT.

Serve pasta with sauce and grated cheese.




Bon appetit :D

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
