- Form the meat mixture into 18 meatballs; refrigerate, covered, until ready to use.
- Heat the olive oil in a heavy 12-inch, deep-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in a single layer and cook until well browned on the bottom before turning, about 7-8 minutes.
- Continue to cook, turning meatballs often, until they are cooked through, about 15 minutes.

- Take care not to break up the meatballs.
- Turn heat to medium-low, cover the pan and cook for 15 minutes.
- To serve, place a portion of the cooked spaghetti on each plate and top with 3 or 4 meatballs.
- Spoon some of the sauce over each portion and scatter with grated Parmesan cheese.
