Meatballs.:
Morrisons has now a very good offer on beef mince- under £2 for 500g.
Boil spaghetti pasta as on the packet, rinse with cold water, leave in the sieve. Use the same pot ( less washing up)
Beef mince put in the bowl, add chopped onions, 2 cloves of garlic, handful of breadcrumbs and crack an egg, salt, pepper, paprika, add 2 spoons of cold water ( it will mix better) taste- add some more spices if needed, don’t be affraid of salt. Mix together in the bowl with your your hand. Make meatballs, if they stick to your hand- have a bowl of cold water handy and dip your hands in after each one. In the pan- fry some oil ( 3 spoon) pot the meatballs in, clockwise, so one on 12,1,2 etc. once you go to 11 check if the 12 o’clock one is nice and brown on the bottom. That’s how you’ll always know which one to turn first. Turn clockwise, and you just fried them on both sides.
You can serve them just like that, with boiled potatoes mash, and a simple salad. OR in the pot- fry chopped onions on 3 spoons of oil, when see thru- add 2 cans of tomatoes, let it fry for a bit. Add teaspoon of sugar ( always sugar your toms! Always). Then add around 500ml of hot water with 1 chicken stock cube dissolved in. You’ve just made a tomato sauce. Now add the meatballs that you’ve fried and are resting on the plate with paper towel, let it simmer. Add 2 garlic cloves to the sauce. If too thin- let it simmer, add some cream or simple half a glass of corn water with teaspoon of corn flower dissolved- always stir vigorously when you add
