Spaghetti with Meat Sauce Recipe:
12 oz dried spaghetti
1 onion
1 large carrot
2 celery
5 cloves garlic
1 lb ground beef (15/85)
2 Italian sausage links
1/4 tsp fennel
1 can tomato paste
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 28oz can crushed tomatoes
1 cup water
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons parsley & basil, finely chopped
Cook spaghetti for half of the time on the package’s direction in salted water, drain and set aside. Save 1/2 cup pasta water to lubricate the sauce.
In a food processor, finely chop onion, celery, carrot, garlic.
In a large heavy bottom pot, add olive oil to cover the bottom. On medium high heat, add chopped vegetables and cook for 3-5 minutes until caramelized. Season with salt while it is cooking.
Once it has browned, add the ground beef and Italian sausage. Break it down and mix with the vegetables. Add Italian seasoning and chopped fennel, and finally the cooked pasta along with the pasta water. Mix and keep the spaghetti submerged, simmering for 5-7 minutes.
Finish seasoning with 2 tbsp parmesan cheese and freshly chopped Italian parsley and basil (about 1 tbsp each). Mix until it comes together and serve with your favorite flavor spiciness and extra cheese!

I made this this week, and my husband said it’s the best I have made. I simmered it for 30 minutes. I was amazed that it’s better than those recipes that take hours to cook!
That’s amazing!!! So happy to hear!! 🥰😊
Love this twist on sauce. All the veggies adding layers of flavor. My grandfather used a fork and spoon to eat his pasta and he was born in Sicily!!! Bon Giorno from Boston Massachusetts 🍅🍷
I hope he would approve!! buon appetito! 🍝
omg i love pasta and omg i wanna go to italy some day also I'm from and live in boston too nice
@@Eddy12700 I admire this young lady I hope her E-book is a smashing success. She had determination & ❤️ heart
Not a very good idea, better to follow the traditional Italian recipes.
@@JusticeMy64 John diggs, then never try anything new! Whatever floats your boat!!!!
Looks delicious! I’m glad you’re posting recipes again 😊
❤
I'm a 19 year old who has never had to cook before. Today, I tried this recipe for the first time, and I absolutely loved it. Thank you so much!
thats great,love helping young people learn to cook,just helped my nephew learn a pasta dish from our family,so good for you,nice to hear.
My dad is 60 years old and has been cooking for a long time. Tonight we cooked this together and he can’t complement this dish enough! We both went back for seconds 😊
Using patis... now that's an ingredient I woulda never thunk to use.... but after trying it, I'm using it for a whole bunch of other recipes you'd never thunk would work! Thanx for a great variation! (I like fried eggs/soft yolks with my spaghetti.... try it...esp leftover for breakfast next morning with garlic pan de sal toast!! ).
I'm kinda like you that I use fish sauce often. I find that it rounds out flavors like using msg.
I make this country style Spaghetti with my wife's sausage gravy as a base , and fresh onion, tomato, green bell pepper, and fish sauce . Man, I love this style more than the slow long cooked sauce we make.
And if my pork chili Verde needs a little something, I give it the fish sauce treatment too.
Thanks!
The fish sauce is actually not actually a weird secret ingredient. My mom used to make a pretty traditional Bolognese sauce and she would always add a few anchovy fillets when she put the meat in the pot for the same reason. The anchovies would just dissolve into the mixture when breaking up the meat and were not even perceptible as any kind of fish flavor, but they definitely added that subtle umami to the whole thing.
Yeah, fish sauce is not a weird ingredient. Even Italy has its own fish sauce: Colatura di alici.
Anchovies are key ingredient in pasta puttanesca too 😋
she sid secret not weird
I was like..."Fish Sauce?", but then I thought about it more, yeah it make's sense. ANCHOIVES!
So are you all sure I won’t taste any fish flavor from the anchovies? Cause the only fish I like from the fish family are Shrimps!
Once again,you never cease to amaze us. It doesn’t matter your ethnic background and your culture or what region you live in the USA 🇺🇸, Bolognese sauce is a crowd-pleaser!😋
Or in the world.. not just the US😉
I am soooo happy to see that you're back to making cooking videos ❤❤❤

Using the chopper in the beginning was brilliant. I’m totally going to make this!
Such a lifesaver!! Can’t wait for you to try this. The fennel seeds make such a difference!!
Quick meals are so valuable, ESPECIALLY if they're done well with great ingredients like this!
This is my meal go to, when I’m tired but want all in one meal…when you add your tomato paste create a gap in the veg and dump it straight on to the bottom of the pot, cooks the paste and deepens its flavor. ❤
so happy you are posting recipes again, yeah!
Fish sauce is actually the reason why I love my home made spaghetti. It is the perfect combo in any similar Italian dishes.
You learn something new all the time.
I caramelize the tomato paste with the veggies and also then add anchovy filets which beautifully just melt away into the olive oil. Great video!!!
Oooh great tips!! Thank u!!
Same!
I really enjoyed this cooking reel. I subscribed. You are organized and so pleasant to watch. Also, I like the ingredients. I use fish sauce regularly but have never used it in my meat sauce. Cool. And the fennel addition: brilliant. I can’t wait to play with this. Thank you. Rock on!!
If you don’t have fish sauce at home, you can use some Worcestershire, also add a little bit of sugar to cut the acidity of the tomatoes.
Oh Worcestershire sauce is smart! It's also made of fish
Worcestershire sauce is best to use.
Asian fish sauce can be over powering for the traditional Italian meat sauce.
You can actually cook off the acidity from either tomato paste or chopped tomatoes. Try cooking the tomato base in the center of your vegetables and spices, use plenty of virgin olive oil and it will reduce the acidity as it cooks. Sugar can be added minimally to elevate the flavor of the sauce, too much sugar and your eating chef bouryardee.
A friend of mine told me his secret to cut down the acidity of the tomatoes was grape jelly. I haven't tried it yet.
I just made this recipe tonight and it is to DIE for!!!
The fish sauce threw me off at first because, being from an Italian family, my mom never used fish sauce in any pasta sauce she made. Not sure if my Nonnie (that was what we called our grandmother) ever did, but she’s sadly no longer around to ask 😢.
Also, we always cook our pasta separately from sauces and soups, otherwise they would swell up over time and become unappetizing.
Still, this sauce is amazing. Thank you for sharing it with us. I can’t wait to share this with my mom.
You can skip the fish sauce and add a tin of anchovies to keep it authentic. My Italian heritage taught me this
U don’t!
@@MrJoshcc600 Maybe. I spoke to my aunt recently and she said that Nonnie never used fish sauce, but she would put anchovy fillets in the sauce. They would just melt into the sauce.
Putting the veggies in the food processor is genius I love my spaghetti too . A friend of mine gave me a tip to add some ginger root to my spaghetti I was skeptical but ginger is very good for you and the added flavor was a home run. Your spaghetti sauce looks amazingly delicious
Looks so delicious! What I liked was you’re not afraid to really eat! You go girl!!
Hahaha thanks!! I love food 😄😄
I gotta say, I am down for the daily releases!! Heck yes!
Yay!!! We’ll keep them coming. Thanks for watching!
My wife is caring for her older brother after a double lung transplant and I made this for lunch for them and wow. I had the same reaction you guys had when tried it. I cooked the chicken in our bbq . I will be sharing your video with everyone. Yum 😋
that's so nice to hear. Blessings to your brother in law. I am nursing my hubby back from a quaddrouple bypass and aortic anuryism repair. He's doing great. I cook 3 meals a day for him ,not easy,but so rewarding. hope he recovers well,my hubby 76 i'm 62,but after this experience I feel 70 lol! all the best to your family
Did u put v every single ingredient? Like the fennel seeds and fish oil?
glad to hear your brother in law is doing well but what chicken is in this recipe?
I looked at your playlist,nice and you did share her recipe very cool!
@@NOMCCBAMA she used ground beef a and sausage. 25:00 . too much meat,but it looks delicious
I just made this tonight... freaking amazing! My boys are picky eaters and they loved it! Thank you @Honeysuckle for this recipe!
Looks yummy! I'd add lots of mushrooms and olives and/or capers only because I like adding the kitchen sink. Oh, and homemade garlic chili sauce, which I know you cannot do because of the kiddos, but definitely give that a try. It's delicious in all kinds of soups and such.
This is the best sauce I’ve ever had, and that includes from any Italian restaurant I’ve been to. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It really is delicious. The best recipe I've tried for pasta sauce.

Oh my!, I thought I was the only crazy one to use fish sauce!!! So glad I’m not the only one. My fam doesn’t know.😅 add so much depth of flavor!!
It's not authentic Italian food.
@@tv-21no one said it is
the Umami is so special - I also love it :)
I came up with a similar recipe only not as saucy. My youngest HATES super saucy pastas. The fish sauce is a great idea, I'm going to try that in my recipe, thanks!
I love pasta, noodles and macaroni, thanks for that Tagalog, watching here in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 from Philippines 🇵🇭
Wow marvelous ❤ i have never put carrots and celery are fish sauce on mine i need to try thanks
I just stumbled across your videos and have been binge watching! I love all these recipe videos. They are very practical, easy ingredients, and great instructions. I also like how you tell us where you get your stuff from. And then you offer alternatives. Thank you! Usually when I binge watch people they start to annoy me after a while. But you're not annoying. Thank you for that. Haha!
Looks so delicious. I will definitely try this. This is perfect because my daughter doesn’t like eating veggies.
It’s 2:53am and you got my mouth watering😋 So glad to see you cooking again! 😁
❤
I'm making this spaghetti a second time now. Bought cento tomato paste and sauce, which makes a big difference!! The aroma and color are just amazing! Will never buy prego again! Forgot the Italian sausage link again… I didn't use it last time, but it was still very good!
Mrs. Honeysuckle;
thank you so much for everything you do, everything you do is so important for everyone. Thanks, I will do this recipe this weekend, thanks.
Respectfully;
Andy
I felt strange as a Mexican American going into an Asian market and trying to find fish sauce. That’s just not in my heritage to do haha but I did it because I was determined to make this after having a spaghetti craving watching your video. I just made it and my husband was telling me where did I learn to make such delicious spaghetti. He could’ve been so hungry anything would’ve tasted delicious but I’d like to think it’s this great recipe. I adjusted the quantity of crushed tomatoes because my husband prefers a less saucy consistency although next time I want to do it exactly the way you did just to see the difference. Anyway, thank you so much for this recipe! I’ve been having fun making delicious Italian food lately and this was another one added to the books!
I went into this video thinking, "I think I make a pretty good meat sauce already", But after watching this video, I was salivating. It looks SO good and easy to make. Thank you for the video
This looks divine. I’m gonna try this tomorrow ❤
So excited for you to try! Can’t wait to hear what you think!! 🤗🤗
Very similar to how i make it! I batch cook them and freeze portions of it for midweek meals
Hi beautiful, I fell in love with your channel years ago ( I m an OG ) , I m so happy you re back with some cooking content ! Heading to the kitchen now .. Thank you 💜
Came here to say I made the meat sauce and it’s so good! Thank you for this! I didn’t have ground beef so I used ground turkey with the Italian sausage meat and also didn’t have the fish sauce but used this Trader Joe’s Mushroom Umami seasoning to add to it. Will try with fish sauce next time! Also LOVED the hidden veggies!!
This is the definition of comfort food...❤❤❤
Primo! I really like this spaghetti meat sauce recipe! All the best!
Omg thought we were the only ones trying to put veggies in our meat sauce! This made us want spaghetti for dinner. Hope you and your family are having a great weekend. Cheers 8)
That looks delicious I would have to make my homemade garlic bread that's drenched in butter garlic olive oil and parmesan baked and slightly toasted to perfection to go with that spaghetti recipe
Made this for dinner tonight. Will be only using this recipe from now on! It was soo delicious!
My mother taught me how to make spaghetti with ground meat and pasta sauce. I grew up watching her making it. I'm able to make it for myself.
A quick tip for you Christine. If any of your family, friends or basically anyone your cooking for are allergic to vegetables, let them know there is veg in your food. Just because you can disguise it with meat is not a good idea.
Other than that it's a great recipe that l/we really enjoyed except for my dear old Aunt Anne who was/is in A&E suffering from her vegetable allergy..
Hi! My name is Dzung 😊 sorry for the confusion, my kids aren’t allergic to vegetables in the real sense, they just refuse to eat them. I should have used a different word. Also sorry to hear about your aunt. Hope she’s ok!
Based on her reply, I will remove my comment regarding allergies lol
I knew what she meant but was looking for her to use the “quote” fingers lol
I love my meat sauce but trying this recipe. Sneak some veggies in my kids too. Looks so good!!
Muchas gracias por compartir 😘😘❤️❤️saludos desde Perú
Been making it every week now since the first try. You are right about this recipe becoming the only spaghetti recipe! ❤
Looks so good, thanks for the recipe. But most of all I have never seen PINK "Le Creuset", it is amazing !
Thank you for making cooking videos again!!
This was fantastic! I am in the middle of a move and thought I had Italian seasoning. Unfortunately that was the only ingredient missing. I was worried this would be bland. I had basil and fennel on hand and all other ingredients. This was still really good and my kiddos ate it up. Definitely adding this to the meal list. So easy!!
OMG .looking awesome. I never use vegetable for spaghetti sos . I’m doing today.Thank you .hello from Melbourne.Sophia.❤
OMG! This is exactly the way I make my spaghetti sauce, carrots with celery and meat with sausage instead of ground pork alone I opted for sausage to have added flavor. Yessss, fish sauce no joke more umami flavor...
Sooo good!!!
This is a little similar to how we make our spaghetti! We also use ground beef and Italian sausage(spicy because we like spicy😆) Along with all those vegetables you used we also add green bell pepper and mushrooms😋
Love that!! My dad used to make a version of this too with green bell peppers and onion! Always with fish sauce too. 🥰
Made this 2 days ago!!! So frekkin delicious!!
I need that food processor. What’s it called or where did u get it? Thanks in advance ❤
It's a Homeleader Food Chopper. I'd personally look at a big Cuisinart instead. (eg the 14 cup). Once you get a small one you'll regret not having the volume.
Yay. I’m always looking for a good recipe for spaghetti sauce. Cant wait to try this :)
Hello I put a lot of veggies in my spaghetti. Carrots, broccoli, califour,onion, tomatoes don’t like garlic much but I do use garlic powder. Yum
This is how I was taught to make spaghetti sauce as well. I think a lot of people don't know about the value of adding carrots!
Thank you for sharing your lovely recipe. ❤❤
Look I don't give thumbs up to videos ...just ultra rarely...but you got one because it takes something truly good for me to even wanna look at that part of the screen my thumbs ups are reserved for that which is truly great bless you and thank you ☺️
You are a great narrator and cheff 👏🏼
This look UH-MAZING!
You had me at fish sauce!! Thought I was the only one who used fish sauce for that extra umami flavor! There's more depth in flavor for sure.
I've been using these ingredients for my meat sauce for 30 yrs already especially dash of fish sauce....yummmm
I put fish sauce in my Spaghetti sauce as well; learned it from Heston Blumenthal.
Wow!!! Looks very healthy & tasty
This looks yummy! I’m gonna try this recipe.
Looks amazing! ❤
Love it ! I will made it tomorrow 😊
Great recipe 👌🏾 i will definitely give it a go. About the vegetables, you said that if anyone is allergic to vegetables, they won't notice because they are mixed with the meat. I think that you were trying to say that if they dont like vegetables that they wouldn't notice the flavors. If someone is allergic to something, they should definitely know which ingredients were used in the preparation of the food. Allergies are something that shouldn't be taken lightly!!
Food allergies can even lead to asthma! And the can result in an anaphylactic shock wich, if not treated quickly, will almost certainly will be fatal.
It's obviously a joke -_- no way anyone took it serious
@bry42001 stop the cap
@@HugoBanks1307 no one would say that for reals, especially not someone as nice as her. If you can't understand jokes just say that and move on

Nice commentary I loved watching this from beginning to end I love spaghetti 🍝 🥰Your sauce came out beautifully 👌
Just made this for the whole family and they LOVE it!! Thanks for sharing ^^
Looks like the sauce I make in my Instant Pot. Make the sauce, add some water, pasta (do not mix) and cook on high pressure for a minute or so. I cook pasta in sauce all the time.
Wow it's like Similar to my mom spaghetti meat sauce recipe 😊❤
Just come across your video and may I just say "Oh My God" An American that actually pronounces the 'H' in Herbs, it's so refreshing to hear an American pronounce it properly as it should be spoken. It is a pet hate of mine every time I hear an American say 'erbs' ! Subbed.
Fresh, well explained and uplifting! Definitely put a smile on my face.😊
Can't wait to try this recipe!
So good, I make this all the time❤
I love pasta 🍝 looks delicious
Good on you girl, home cooking is awesome 👍
Tip I learned is after the meat is browned I drain excess fat and add some milk maybe 1/2 cup to 2lbs of meat. Turn the heat down a little and let the meat absorb the milk. This makes the meat very tender. Then continue with the rest of your recipe.
Made this was yummyyyyyyyyy ❤❤❤❤
Looks good have to try this
wow .. I thought I was the only person that added fish sauce to their spaghetti .. it's such a great hack that nobody does or even knows
or anchovies
Outstanding!
That spaghetti 🍝 looks amazing
without a doubt, this is the smartest way to make sauce
This looks incredible I will try this soon!!❤
Hi Honeysuckle! Can't wait to try this recipe out, making your miso carbonara udon this Friday. I'd love to start making cooking videos as I'm so inspired by yours. Do you mind sharing which camera you use for recording? Do you have to use a certain editing software? I'd appreciate the insight as I want it to be high quality like your own. Thank you so much lovely!
Looks really good!!
Never made spaghetti sauce like this with the processed veggies..... Will try this today though
Strange coincidence but, in the beginning of your recipe, before the sauce is added, is my recipe for stuffing. For stuffing, I add dampened toasted bread chunks to the veggie/meat mix, season, add more water, mx.
So freegan delicious. Luv it. How about adding a little chilli powder. Yum yum.
Looks yummy; I'm going to make this for dinner tonight
Yay!! Hope u loved it!!
There's something so magical about spaghetti! This looks absolutely delicious, I love your umami trick/tip and also that extra fennel, yum! What a fun recipe, saving it to my Food folder to make later :)
It’s so comforting!! The fennel seeds def gives it another layer of flavor. Can’t wait for you to try!!
@@honeysuckle I will report back! Also congratulations on your 2nd book being in motion, soooo so happy to have more of your recipes and ideas in my life.
Looks delicious.
Wonderful presentation......
