Just like those of the protagonists of the Disney cartoon, with tomato sauce and meatballs, to roll up and suck
Impossible not to remember the scene of Lady and the Tramp in which, on the notes of Sweet dream, the two dogs eat spaghetti with meatballs sucking the pasta until you kiss. A tribute to Italy and the good Italian cuisine, complete with clichés of red and white checked tablecloth. If you are looking for a recipe for your children, but will also lick the mustache to adults, here's how to prepare the "Spaghetti and meatballs", as the Americans call them.
The spaghetti recipe Lady and the Tramp
Ingredients for 4 people
350 g of spaghetti (set according to the children's hunger and their age)
800 g of tomato sauce
1 clove of garlic
1 white onion
100 g of good quality ground beef
50 g of sausage
nutmeg to taste
1 egg
3 slices of bread in a box soaked in milk and squeezed
flour 00 qb
extra virgin olive oil as needed
Salt to taste
Method
In a bowl mix the mince and the sausage, grate the nutmeg, add the egg and the 3 slices of bread in a wet box in the milk and squeeze well or release too much liquid.
Once amalgamated everything starts to form small balls and flour them.
Separately fry the garlic clove and thinly chopped onion in extra virgin olive oil. Add the sauce and cook for a quarter of an hour. Set to salt. Then add the meatballs gently so that they do not break and continue cooking for another hour, over low heat.
Put the water to heat up the pasta, add salt, dip the spaghetti and then toss with the sauce and meatballs. Serve the pasta with 4 meatballs on top of each. For those who love parmesan, sprinkle the dish well.
