Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
In a small sauce pan, heat 1 Tbsp olive oil. Once oil is hot, add chopped garlic and cook until soft and fragrant, 4-5 minutes. Stir constantly to prevent burning. Once fully cooked, set aside. In a large bowl, mix ground beef, onions, sauteed garlic, egg yolk, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and seasonings. Mix until combined and form into 14-16 even meatballs.
Step 2
In a medium sauce pan, add olive oil on medium-high heat. Once oil is hot, add meatballs, spacing at least 1/2 inch apart. You are only searing the meatballs to brown them, they will finish cooking in the sauce. Cook until bottom is browned, then flip. Rotate cooking sides of the meatballs until all sides are browned (6-10 min). Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
In a medium sauce pan, add tomato sauce. Heat until warm. Once warmed, add meatballs. Cook for 10-15 minutes, until meatballs are fully cooked and sauce is hot. The sauce should heat at a simmer, not a boil.
Step 4
Cook spaghetti according to box directions.
Step 5
Once sauce is hot, remove meatballs and set aside. Add cooked pasta to sauce and stir to coat. Garnish pasta with meatballs, parmesan cheese and parsley.
