Spaghetti And Meatballs

  1. For the meatballs, combine meatloaf mix, breadcrumbs, onion, tomato paste, egg, pine nuts, mint and parsley in a large bowl. Form into 3/4-inch balls. Refrigerate for 10 mins.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet on high heat. Brown meatballs, in batches, on all sides for 4-5 mins. Drain on paper towel.
  3. For the tomato sauce, saute onion and garlic in drippings in skillet for 2-3 mins or until onion is tender. Stir in diced tomatoes, 1 cup water, wine, sun-dried tomato, tomato paste and sugar. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer for 15 mins. Season to taste.
  4. Return meatballs to pan and simmer for further 10-15 mins or until cooked through (add a little more liquid to sauce if it becomes too thick).
  5. Meanwhile, cook spaghetti in a saucepan of salted boiling water according to package directions. Drain well and return to pan.
  6. Add meatballs and sauce, torn basil and olives to hot spaghetti; toss well. Top with additional whole basil leaves and Parmesan cheese.
