Directions: |
Directions:Put water in a pot to boil the spaghetti. Preheat oven to 450º. Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add oil and garlic. When garlic starts sizzling, add herbs and crushed pepper. Allow oil to infuse for half a minute, then stir in the tomatoes and season sauce with salt and pepper. Bring sauce to a bubble, reduce heat, and let simmer while you're making the meatballs and boiling the pasta.
Place meat in a large mixing bowl and punch a well into the center. Fill well with the next 6 ingredients. Mix well, but not too much. Divide into 4 equal parts; roll each part into 4 balls and space equally onto a baking sheet. Roast meatballs for 12 minutes. Break a meatball open and make sure it is cooked. Serve over hot spaghetti and sauce, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Add garlic bread and salad for a complete feast! |
