- ΒΌ dl water
- 400 g diced tomatoes

Method
- Mince the garlic and onion, and add half of each in a bowl with minced meat, salt and a small splash of water. Mix together.

- Boil spaghetti in well-salted water.
- Remove the meatballs from the pan and fry the rest of the garlic and onion in the fat left over from the meatballs.
- When the onion is soft, add diced tomatoes and the meatballs. Let the tomato sauce simmer for at least 15 minutes.
- Add a small splash of pasta water, finely chopped basil and grated parmesan towards the end of the cooking time.
- Serve the spaghetti with meatballs in tomato sauce, some extra grated parmesan and baguettes.
- Put half of the meatballs in tomato sauce if you follow a weekend dinner with leftover dinner.
