  2. Form about 3 dozen 1-inch meatballs.
  3. In a large frying pan or roasting pan, fry the meatballs over low heat in a small amount of oil, turning brown on all sides.
  4. When the meatballs are hard, drain the excess fat, and then add the tomatoes, tomato paste, onion, garlic, parsley, salt and oregano.
  5. Simmer the sauce and meatballs over low heat for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
  6. Just before the sauce is ready, prepare linguine or spaghetti in boiling salted water, following the directions on the packaging. Well drain and serve it hot along with the sauce.
  7. Offer a small bowl or container of grated Parmesan cheese at the table.

Recipe Options

  • Meatballs can be baked. Form the meatballs, place them on a cooling pad in a large baking dish and bake for 15-20 minutes. Mix them in a roasting pan with sauce ingredients and continue the recipe.
  • If desired, add chopped bell pepper and / or chopped carrots to the sauce.
  • Main meat sauce - Instead of cooking meatballs, fry ground beef in a small amount of oil in a roasting pan or large pan. Drain well and then add the sauce ingredients to the pan. Simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
