Steps to make Spaghetti and Meatballs:
- Take 7g salt, 5g cinnamon, 4g black pepper and mix. Spread on the minced meat and knead the spices into it.
- Shape the minced meat into balls and let sit for a while.
- Chop and mince the onions and capsicum. Remove the seed core from the tomatoes before dicing them.
- Take the mince balls and in a pan add just a little water about 1/4 a cup. Put the balls in the pan and bring to simmer until the outside turns brown in colour. Flip over to the raw side and do the same, before removing.
- Take your diced veggies (onions, tomatoes and capsicum) and fry them using butter or margarine for three to four minutes.
- Add the remaining salt, black pepper, bayleaves, oregano, cinnamon and mint and let it cook for a minute.
- Remove the sauce (this is my version of marinara sauce) and using an immersion blender blend until it is smooth. Alternatively an ordinary blender can also do.
- Return the now smooth sauce (marinara) to the heat and let it simmer stirring constantly.
- Add the precooked meatballs in the sauce and cover. Let it cook for five minutes over low heat.
- Boil water in another pan and add your spaghetti. Let it boil for 4-6 mins if you like it "al dente". If you like it completely soft but not overcooked add 2-3 more minutes.
- After the spaghetti has been cooked to your desired taste. Run it through cold water and add a little salt and margarine in a pan and toss the spaghetti in it. Let it cook for two minutes.
- Serve the meatballs and pasta and enjoy.
