How to Make Speghetti
Spegetti
I love spaghetti. This recipe is a little different from what I am us to but it tastes good.
What you need:
skillet
large spoon to stir
water
salt
rosemary mixed with other spices
basil
parmesan cheese
grounded hamburger
thin noodles
All of the photos are from DChance.
Step One
Pictures of the main spices.
This will show you what everything that you need to make the speghetti. Also, add the parmesan cheese for at the end. The parmesan is not shown.
Spices
I love to use them. There are so many recipes that call for many different spices.
When you run low on spice just refill the small bottle given to you on your spice rack at the store.
When you have more spices ... you can start doing tougher recipes.
Step Two
Pan
Water
Salt
This is the second pan that will be used. I use this pan to put on the back burner. It is on the back burner because this one will be on for longer then the front one.
I like to do both of my pans on low.
I would shake about 4 to 6 shakes of salt into the pan.
Why use salt? This makes the noodles slowly cook. Italians might put more salt into the water for even slower cooking. This takes practice so ... no more then 6 shakes for a novice.
Step Three
As you can see ... the noodles are in the pan.
I snap them in half. Then, I put them in the pan.
You be doing this for 20 minutes. I will have more pictures up.
This is not easy to do. I have been making this sort of recipe for years.
Step Four
Shown are three balls of hamburger ... I made with one hand.
The spices are already in the skillet. I put in 4 shakes of each spice.
Step Five
Now, mesh up the hamburger.
Add some more shakes of spice. 4 more shakes after you mix the other spices in to the hamburger.
Step Six
If your skillet is not already on low ... put it on low.
Your hamburger will cook.
Only when your hamburger is not pink put on the Prego sauce or whatever sauce you have chosen.
Mix the sauce in. Then, even the sauce out with the back of the spoon.
It will soon start to boil.
When the sauce starts to pop in the middle you mix it. If it continues to pop near the middle .. it is done.
Step Seven
Back with the other pain. The water has started to boil.
This does not mean it is done. As you can see ... the noodles are still straight.
Step Eight
Not done. I told you they where straight looking. This is about two minutes, later.
As you can see the noodles do not touch.
If you ate them like this they would be crunchy.
Step Eight
About five minutes, later.
Still, not done.
There is a glare to this photo but the noodles do touch. This is a good sign.
If you ate the noodles now ... they would be chewy.
Step Nine
10 minutes, later.
Your noodles should be done. If you are worried that they are not done wait another 4 minutes.
Shut off the pan.
Stick the fork into the noodles. Twill your fork. If the noodles twirl the spaghetti is done.
Get a plate. With the other hand, use a fork to serve. I stick the fork into the noodles. I twill them as I pull them up out of the water at a slant. Don't burn yourself.
Let the water drip into the pan before you plate it. I plate about three fork-fulls of noodles into my plate. This should be enough for one person. Most of the time I put in two fork-fulls of noodles.
You can lay on stripes of sauce with your spoon onto your noodles. I put about three onto the noodles.
Add... parmesan cheese on top.
Kid's Speghetti
Put 2 fork fulls of spaghetti onto a plate.
Cut the spaghetti with your fork into smaller pieces.
Adding Sauce
I added one scope of sauce to the noodles.
Done!
My little boy loves this recipe.
