- Ingredients
- 3 cups canned, crushed Tomatoes
- 2 cloves garlic cloves (chopped)
- 1 Tbsp fresh oregano (finely chopped)
- 1 tsp salt (divided)
- ½ cup fine, fresh breadcrumbs
- ½ cup Whole milk
- 24 ozs ground Beef
- 1 medium onion (coarsely grated)
- 3 Tbsps fresh parsley (chopped)
- ¼ tsp crushed Red pepper flakes
- 1 ½ Tbsps olive oil
- 16 ozs Spaghetti
- Parmesan (to garnish)
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.
