This is my special spaghetti recipe. My sister's fave. I will share it for you guys. You can use your own measure. You can put more sugar if you like it sweet, put chili sauce if you like it hot, whatever. Cooking is about feeling, haha.
Spaghetti ala Nina
Ingredients
spaghetti
a bowl of corn (shredded or canned)
2 sausages, cut round
1/2 cup of finely chopped onion
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
salt
freshly ground pepper
sugar
2 spoons of oregano
5 meatballs, sliced or diced
1 spoon of corn starch
1 cup of tomato paste
5 spoons of tomato ketchup
vegetable oil
Directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add also 2 spoons of vegetable oil. Add the spaghetti and cook until it is al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain and toss the spaghetti.
Heat 2 spoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat in a skillet, saute chopped onion and garlic. Put tomato paste and tomato ketchup. Add corn and a cup of water. Cover the skillet for a while and let the mixture boil.
Open the skillet cover, put sausages and meatballs in the mixture, add salt, sugar, pepper, and oregano. Stir thoroughly.
Put corn starch in a bowl, add water to dissolve it. Add this into the sauce mixture and stir thoroughly. The sauce is done.
Place the spaghetti in a serving platter and arrange the sauce on top. Put parmesan or cheddar cheese as you like. Serve immediately.
I don't have the picture right now, but I will try to take some next time I cook this again.
