Red meatballs and spaghetti
Cooking duration: 1 hour 20 minutes
Introduction:
The combination of spaghetti and meatballs is probably one of the best dishes to have ever been invented. The very serving of spaghetti, trying to lift it using a fork is a nice experience. It is both delicious and highly nutritious and it brings the childhood memories when one was trying to life the correct amount of spaghetti from the eating bowl.

Ground veal
Ground pork
Ground beef
Fresh white bread crumbs
Seasoned dry bread crumbs
