🔴Is Your Spaghetti Recipe Better than Mine?

Unlike TV Shows that edit and cut to give the viewer no sense of the timing it takes to cook a meal, this stream will show you how long it truly takes to make spaghetti from the beginning of making the sauce, boiling the pasta, adding zucchini noodles and finishing with garlic bread. The entire cooking process should take approximately 1 1/2 hours to complete.

Spaghetti Sauce with Sausage and Meatballs

Ingredients:

  • 1 Tbsp Oil
  • 1/4 Cup Water
  • Package of 5 Hot Italian Sausages
  • 8-12 Pre cooked or frozen Meatballs
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1/2 Cup Red Wine
  • 1 Onion, chopped
  • 1 Bell Pepper (may be omitted)
  • 2 cans (15 oz) Tomato Sauce
  • 1 can (15 oz) Chopped Tomatoes
  • 4 leaves fresh Basil chopped
  • 1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper
  • 8 oz Spaghetti Noodles

Preparation:

  1. Place the Oil and Water in a large pot and heat over medium high heat. Add the sausages and cook until the water has boiled off and then for about another 8 minutes turning to brown all sides of the sausages.
  2. Turn off the heat and take out the sausages and slice the sausages to about 1 inch thickness
  3. Drain all but about 1 teaspoon of the grease from the pot
  4. Turn the stove on to high heat and brown the garlic in the left over 1 teaspoon of oil (about 1 minute).
  5. Add the wine and scrape all the browned bits off the bottom to deglaze the pan. Add the sausage back in and stir to coat with the wine. Add the onions and cook stirring occasionally till browned, about 6 minutes.
  6. Add the canned tomato sauce, canned tomatoes, basil and pepper into the pot and stir to combine. Let the sauce boil and then turn to low and let simmer for 30 minutes.
  7. While the sauce is simmering, begin to boil the water to cook your spaghetti. Once the water has boiled and you have cooked the spaghetti, the sauce should be ready.

Zucchini Noodles

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium zucchini
  • 2 Tablespoons (30g) butter
  • 3 large cloves garlic, minced (or to taste)
  • about 3/4 cup (180ml) parmesan cheese
  • kosher or sea salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes

Preparation:

  1. Cut zucchini into spirals or noodle strands using the vegetable spiralizer or julienne peeler.
  2. Heat large pan on medium-high heat. Melt butter, then add garlic. Cook garlic until fragrant and translucent. Don’t let the garlic burn.
  3. Add zucchini noodles and cook until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Zucchini noodles cook really fast, so taste a strand as you cook and decide how firm or “al-dente” you want the zucchini. Don’t overcook the zucchini noodles or else they’ll become mush.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat, add parmesan cheese and season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Add chili flakes then serve warm.

Garlic, Garlic Bread

Ingredients:

  • 1 16-ounce (450 g) loaf of Italian bread or French bread
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick, 112 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 Tbsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 cup (25 g) freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Prepare the garlic bread: Cut the loaf in half, horizontally. Mix the butter and garlic powder together in a bowl. Spread butter mixture over the the two bread halves from edge to edge leaving no exposed bread. Sprinkle on the parmesan to cover
  3. Heat in oven for 10 min: Place on a sturdy baking pan (one that can handle high temperatures, not a cookie sheet) and heat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10 minutes. For extra browning, you can broil the bread for another minute.
  4. Remove from oven, let cool a minute. Remove from pan and use a bread knife to cut into 1-inch thick slices.
