Spaghetti with Meat Sauce Recipe:
12 oz dried spaghetti

1 large carrot
2 celery
5 cloves garlic

1 cup water
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons parsley & basil, finely chopped

Cook spaghetti for half of the time on the package’s direction in salted water, drain and set aside. Save 1/2 cup pasta water to lubricate the sauce.

In a food processor, finely chop onion, celery, carrot, garlic.
In a large heavy bottom pot, add olive oil to cover the bottom. On medium high heat, add chopped vegetables and cook for 3-5 minutes until caramelized. Season with salt while it is cooking.
Once it has browned, add the ground beef and Italian sausage. Break it down and mix with the vegetables. Add Italian seasoning and chopped fennel, and finally the cooked pasta along with the pasta water. Mix and keep the spaghetti submerged, simmering for 5-7 minutes.

Finish seasoning with 2 tbsp parmesan cheese and freshly chopped Italian parsley and basil (about 1 tbsp each). Mix until it comes together and serve with your favorite flavor spiciness and extra cheese!

This is the only spaghetti and meat sauce you’ll ever make again it only takes 30 minutes to prepare it’s healthy loaded with veggies it’s delicious full of flavor and you can make it for dinner any night of the week so first we’re going to prep all of our veggies I have

The onion garlic carrot and celery for the onion I’m just going to give it a rough chop and since time is of the essence here we’re going to put everything into the food processor so since I’m throwing everything into the food processor I want it to be

Similar size pieces with the onion the carrot and the celery that way everything gets chopped up evenly and then garlic let’s do five Cloves and then our carrot I’m going with a pretty large size one cuz you really want it packed with veggies you can go either way with peeling it or not peeling it if you have the time peel it if you don’t you can leave it whole just

Make sure you give it a good wash again just similar size chunks and then our celery I think the addition of the carrot and the celery really adds like a nice sweetness to our sauce and I used the leaves too we’re going to give it a whirl until

You get small pieces just make sure that it doesn’t get too mushy and this looks about good and then once that’s done we’re basically ready to cook okay so to cook everything I have a large heavy pot and I’m just going to add a nice glug of olive oil to the

Bottom and then we’ll turn the heat on to medium high and once the oils nice and shimmery we’re going to add in our chopped vegetables they really need to cook and caramelize here and to really amp up the flavor I’m going to hit it with some salt to really bring out the

Flavor and make it sweat while it’s cooking so I know it looked like I added a lot of olive oil but once you add in the veggies and it starts to sauté it really absorbs all of that healthy fat so don’t be afraid of it o it’s looking good so the vegetables

Are starting to caramelize and you see like brown bits at the bottom now it’s time to add our Meats I have 1 lb of ground beef here that’s an 8515 split I like using this fat content ratio because I feel like the sauce does doesn’t get too heavy and Rich where you

Just feel like it has a full layer of oil on top but this one is nice and balanced and then I have two lengths of Italian sausage here that’s about half a pound you can just get this at your local butcher or deli section just remove the casing and then we’ll add it

All in the pot together and the combination of these two Meats together really gives the sauce a nice depth of flavor this is also great because for anyone in your family that’s allergic to vegetables they would never know the veggies pretty much much cling on into

The meat and it just becomes one it also helps to tenderize the meat since we only have 30 minutes to make this we don’t have the time to really break down the meat and make it tender as you would if you were to cook it for hours on in

So once the meat and the vegetables have combined we’re going to hit it with some more flavor I’m adding 1 tbspoon of dried Italian seasoning and this is optional but I like adding some crushed fennel in there to give it more of that sausy but like sweet fennel flavor that

Enhances the dish as well and then I’m going to add one whole can of tomato paste the tomato paste here will give the sauce a deep rich concentrated tomato flavor and it’s going to enhance our sauce’s overall taste it’s starting to smell so good with the spices

Especially the fennel that I added in here and then the tomato paste and the meat Browning we’re almost there we’re almost there O Beautiful caramel ization at the bottom so once we get that I’m going to add in a whole can of crushed tomatoes we’ll rinse the can with a little bit of

Water I just like to fill it up halfway can’t waste any of the goodness here and then my secret sauce fish sauce it’s basically made out of anchovies and it gives your sauce that Umami saltiness that you would normally get if you were to again cook your meat sauce for hours

On end but this is my shortcut hack to infuse it with that delicious flavor just make sure you scrape off any of the caramelization at the bottom cuz that is the flavor and then we’ll just cover it up and let it simmer for another 15 minutes and while we’re waiting for this

To simmer give this video a thumbs up and now I’m going to make our pasta for my pasta I’m only boiling it for half the time it says on the box to get rid of the starchiness okay the pasta is boiling let’s double check on our meat

Sauce amazing I’m going to give it a quick stir oh yes honestly with like the oil on the side it looks like I’ve been simmering this for hours and you can just see how soft the meat already looks it’s going to be great but now I’m going to finish cooking off the pasta

Inside the meat sauce I’ve also saved some pasta water to really help the sauce cing to the pasta now the question is do I mix it with a spoon or a tongs cuz it’s going to be messy St just make sure that the spaghetti is completely submerged and then we’re

Going to let it finish cooking for another 5 to 7 minutes for me I love it when my pasta is like fully drenched and flavored in the sauce and once it’s ready I’m going to finish it off with some grated Parmesan cheese and some freshly chopped parsley and basil to

Give it some added Freshness Let’s serve this oh it is drenched in the sauce and the spaghetti looks perfectly Cooked you can spoon in some more meat sauce right on top wow look at that I’ll hit it with some more parmesan cheese some Hubs and since I like it with a hint of spiciness some freshly crushed red pepper now let’s dig in I was always taught that to have spaghetti you always twirl it on a spoon like This I’m not even joking when I say that is one of the best spaghetti and meat sauce I’ve ever had this is honestly a recipe that I make all the time on my Instagram and I always get asked for the recipes so here it is I hope you guys

  1. Looks like the sauce I make in my Instant Pot. Make the sauce, add some water, pasta (do not mix) and cook on high pressure for a minute or so. I cook pasta in sauce all the time.

  2. I use herbs de Provence, Mexican oregano and can of 365 crushed tomatoes, chopped onions and carrots, garlic powder, Asian Worcestershire sauce, dash of ketchup and lean ground beef. This is an inspiration of the Japanese style spaghetti 👋🏻

  3. Looks yummy! I'd add lots of mushrooms and olives and/or capers only because I like adding the kitchen sink. Oh, and homemade garlic chili sauce, which I know you cannot do because of the kiddos, but definitely give that a try. It's delicious in all kinds of soups and such.

  4. Once again,you never cease to amaze us. It doesn’t matter your ethnic background and your culture or what region you live in the USA 🇺🇸, Bolognese sauce is a crowd-pleaser!😋

  5. There's something so magical about spaghetti! This looks absolutely delicious, I love your umami trick/tip and also that extra fennel, yum! What a fun recipe, saving it to my Food folder to make later 🙂

  6. Omg thought we were the only ones trying to put veggies in our meat sauce! This made us want spaghetti for dinner. Hope you and your family are having a great weekend. Cheers 8)

  7. It looks good and everything was great, until the mention of fish sauce. That was a new variation of me. I don't normally use fish sauce or even buy it, so that one will take me time to adjust to it. I worked in a supermarket as a teen, so if anybody dropped a bottle of Asian bottled fermented sauces it one of crew cleaning it up. It's a memory & event that still in my mind when I think of Asian sauces. I'll let you know if I ever get to buy fish sauce, just to try it. I'm sure it will be good.

  8. I like the adjustments for speed, the fish sauce is particularly intriguing.

    I use red wine after the tomato paste but it requires a long simmer to really blend and bring out the layers of flavors.

  9. I cook the fennel seeds in the oil first, i also add the garlic at the very last stage of the simmer

  10. OMG! This is exactly the way I make my spaghetti sauce, carrots with celery and meat with sausage instead of ground pork alone I opted for sausage to have added flavor. Yessss, fish sauce no joke more umami flavor…
