Macaroni And Meatballs Recipe Ingredients

  • 1 pack of spaghetti (500 g)
  • Basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese to sprinkle

Meatball

  • 1 stale French bread
  • 1 egg
  • 300 g of minced meat
  • 2 slices of pepper sausage, skinless, minced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup (tea) of Catupiry® cottage cheese

Sauce

  • 10 chopped tomatoes
  • 1 cup (tea) of water
  • 2 tablespoons of oil
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 2 minced garlic cloves
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Method of preparation

For the meatballs, wet the bread with water and squeeze it to release all the liquid. Crumble in a bowl and add the egg, meat, sausage, salt and pepper. Knead until a homogeneous mass is formed and shape into meatballs with your hands, filling with Catupiry®.

For the sauce, add the tomato and water to the blender and blend until a sauce is formed. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion and garlic until golden brown. Lower the heat, add the whipped sauce and cook for 10 minutes. Add the reserved meatballs and cook for another 15 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the meatballs are cooked through. Turn off and season with salt and pepper.

Cook the macaroni according to package directions, drain and transfer to a large serving dish. Season the pasta with the tomato sauce and the meatballs, then serve sprinkled with basil and parmesan.
