Instructions

  1. Peel off the onion and garlic clove and dice both finely. Clean and grate the zucchini. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan. Sauté half of the onions and zucchini in it for about 3 minutes, season with salt and pepper and let cool down briefly.
  2. Mix the minced meat with the zucchini mixture, egg and breadcrumbs. Season the minced meat with salt and pepper and shape into small balls with damp hands. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the pan and fry the meatballs in it for about 5 minutes, then remove. Steam the remaining onions and garlic in the frying fat until translucent. Pour in the pizza tomatoes and cook for about 5 minutes. Mix in the meatballs and cover and let stand over low heat for about 5 minutes.
  3. In the meantime, cook the spaghetti al dente in plenty of boiling salted water.
  4. Finely chop the basil leaves. Season the tomato sauce with salt, pepper, a pinch of sugar and basil. Drain the spaghetti and mix with the meatball tomato sauce. Serve sprinkled with grated Italian hard cheese.
