Spaghetti meatball is one of my favourite meal at italian restaurants. With venison meatballs, and my simple tomato sauce, it is even better!
This is a very simple recipe. It only has 5 ingredients (excluding salt and water), but this is what italian food is all about! Simple ingredients, great quality and perfect cooking technique.

minutesIngredients
24 frozen venison meatballs (see recipe here venison meatballs)
1 lb of dry spaghetti (get the good quality pasta!)
2 tbsp of salt
1 liter of passata (italian tomato puree)
1 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
1 handful of basil leaves
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. Cover a baking sheet with a sheet of parchemin paper. When the oven is hot, place the meatballs on the baking sheet and cook in the oven for 20 minutes.
- In the meantime, bring a large pot of water (3 + liters) to a boil. Add the salt in the pot and then the spaghettis. Let the pasta cook in a constant boil to ensure that they do not stick together.
- In the meantime, heat the passata in a deep skillet under medium heat. When the passata is hot, add in the balsamic vinegar.
- When the pasta are 2 minutes before al dente (as indicated on the package), collect 1 cup of pasta water and strain the pasta. Add the pasta to the passata and mix. Lightly cut the basil by hand and add to the pasta. Mix for a total of 1-2 minutes. If too dry, add some pasta water.
- The spaghetti is now done! Separate the pasta into 4 portions and top with 6 meatballs each. Optionally, top with your choice of chili flakes, freshly grated parmesan cheese, parsley, or basil.
