Enjoyable reality about me: I make the perfect spaghetti and meatballs, regardless of not having an oz. of Italian blood in me. I’m satisfied it’s as a result of I look Italian-ish, no less than in keeping with like 25% of recent individuals who meet me and really feel I look Italian sufficient to touch upon it. It’s awkward, but when it means I get to get pleasure from superb do-it-yourself meatballs, I suppose it’s value it.
I really feel so ballsy (pun meant) about my meatball making abilities that I just lately made them for an Italian buddy after she had a child. They bought two very enthusiastic thumbs up, though undecided how that counts coming from a sleep and do-it-yourself meals disadvantaged human.
What makes this recipe for spaghetti and spicy meatballs so particular is the mix of spices added to the meatball combine. I take advantage of a little bit of chili powder, allspice, oregano, basil, cayenne and crushed pink pepper flakes. It provides a bit of warmth with out being completely overpowering, and the allspice provides some sweetness. The opposite factor I really like about these meatballs is how tender they’re. You may principally eat them with a spoon!
