Preparation steps

1.
Simmer crushed tomatoes with garlic, oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a 3-quart / 2.84-l heavy saucepan, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 20 minutes.
2.
Meanwhile, stir together bread crumbs and milk in a large bowl and let stand 5 minutes. Add ground beef, onion, 3 tablespoons of parsley, red pepper, and remaining salt and blend with your hands until just combined. Form meatballs, using approximately 2 tablespoons of the mixture for each meatball.
3.
Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat until hot but not smoking, sauté meatballs in 2 batches, turning occasionally, until well browned, about 5 minutes each batch. Transfer browned meatballs with a slotted spoon to tomato sauce.
4.
Simmer meatballs, covered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
5.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, 8 to 9 minutes. Serve with tomato sauce and meatballs. Garnish with Parmesan cheese.
