Zia Rossi's Spaghetti And Meatballs Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • 1. Brown the meat pieces in the oil until well colored, then add the garlic, onion, and saute until tender.
  • 2. Add the paste, tomatoes, water and herbs, and bring to a boil, then season with salt and pepper to your own personal taste.
  • 3. Turn mixture down to a simmer.
  • 4. For the meatballs, add the bread crumbs to the milk to moisten.
  • 5. Mix all the meatball ingredients together with the bread crumb mixture.
  • 6. Shape into golf ball sized balls, and gently drop into the simmering sauce.
  • 7. Do not stir for the first 15 minutes or so until the meatballs begin to firm up.
  • 8. Continue to cook for 2 hours over very low heat, stirring occasionally, and adding extra water as needed if the sauce becomes too thick.
  • 9. This sauce, with or without the meatballs can now be used over your pasta of choice.
  • 10. Just before serving, stir the 3 tablespoons of grated cheese into the sauce.
  • 11. Serve over pasta cooked al dente, and offer a little more parmesan cheese at the table.
