I know spaghetti is the pasta, but you know what I mean.
Sometimes I do a bolognese sauce, but usually I make meatballs, about nickel to quarter-sized, also an equal amount of browned sweet Italian sausage cut after broiling into small bites and added to the sauce with the meatballs cooked in olive oil.
For sauce, I use cans of tomatoes, dicing them, adding lots of sliced mushrooms, diced onion, fresh minced garlic. Some water, red wine, and Maggi are used. Spices include bay leaves, garlic powder, parsley, lots of oregano, pepper, a little basil, crushed red pepper, and black pepper. I add some olive oil to the sauce, a couple tablespoons.
Meatballs are made w ground beef (sometimes veal added), regular and Panko bread crumbs, eggs, a little cream and ketchup, and spices similar to the sauce.
I cook it for hours, adding a small can of tomato paste if needed to thicken, water if too thick, stirring often.
Today I made a huge batch (almost 20 quarts), will freeze a lot for future meals. It is in fact best a few days after being made.
Spaghetti w meatballs is my deathbed meal.
