Step cooking
Preparing Meatballs
- We take 250 grams of pork and ground beef, mix, knead with a fork. It is best to use homemade natural minced meat, which will include selected meat.
- Add well-mashed minced meat and pepper to taste. Drive one chicken egg into it, mix to form a homogeneous mass.
- Pre-grind the crumb of fresh white bread so that we get small crumbs. It is important that they do not have time to dry, and get into the minced meat fresh. Therefore, immediately add them to the meat.
- We grind well washed and dried parsley, add to the total mass of minced meat. Cut three cloves of medium-sized garlic and toss there. Care should be taken to ensure that the garlic is well chopped and does not contain large pieces.
- Rub the parmesan cheese (70 grams) on a fine grater. You need to choose only selected and high-quality parmesan for the dish, since the whole taste and aroma of meatballs will depend on this.
- We mix all the ingredients in one bowl and carefully combine them. It is necessary that they form the most uniform and uniform consistency. Then each meatball will absorb the full range of taste from all the ingredients.
- We proceed to the formation of meatballs. We pluck off a small amount of minced meat and roll up a perfectly even ball in our hands. It is very important that all balls are of the same size, with a diameter of 3 cm.
- When all the balls are formed, put them on a wide bowl and sprinkle with sifted wheat flour on top so that each meatball is covered with a thin ball.
- We heat the pan, pour a tablespoon of olive oil on it.
- Place meat balls on a heated surface and fry them on low heat for no more than 10 minutes. Turn the balls around in a circular motion of the pan in the hands.
- When the meatballs are ready, put them on a paper towel so that they cool down and lose excess fat.
Sauce preparation
- For the sauce we take a wide pan with low walls and a thick bottom, heat it over a fire, add a spoonful of olive oil. Grind into small pieces one medium sweet pepper, onion head. Throw vegetables in a preheated pan with butter and fry on low heat for 3-4 minutes.
- In a blender bowl, grind three large ripe tomatoes with a peel, add two cloves of garlic there and continue to beat. Pour the resulting tomato into a pan to vegetables, add Italian herbs and simmer for three more minutes over low heat.
Dish assembly
- Put the fried meatballs in simmering tomato sauce, simmering for 10 minutes.
- Pour spaghetti cooked until half cooked to sauce and simmer for a couple of minutes.It is worth choosing pasta made from durum wheat, as they hold their shape better and taste better.
- Place the prepared spaghetti with meatballs in a wide dish, pour sauce on top and decorate with fresh basil leaves.
