Making Spaghetti is one of the easiest dishes to make. Everyone will love it.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 1 Pound Hamburger
  • Small box of spaghetti noodles
  • Spaghetti sauce
  • Frying pan
  • Strainer
  1. Step 1

    The very first step is cook the hamburger. Place the hamburger into the frying pan and start by chopping it into real small pieces. As the hamburger cooks it will turn brown. I always get it a little crispy so I know that it is cooked 100%.

  2. Step 2

    While the hamburger is cooking place a pan of water on the stove and bring it to a boil. The pan should be large enough to hold all the spaghetti noodles in it. Once the water is at boiling temperature place the spaghetti noodles into the water. Boil the noodles for 8 to 10 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Once the noodles have finished boiling for 8 to 10 minutes open the spaghetti sauce and pour it into the hamburger and allow the sauce and meet to simmer for 3 minutes on low.

  4. Step 4

    The noodles need to be drained into the strainer and placed back into the pan. Dump all the noodles into the strainer and shake the strainer only once to get excess water out of the noodles. Place the noodles back into the boiling pan and add the sauce and the meat to the same pan. Mix together and serve.

Tips & Warnings
  • Shaking the strainer only once will allow just enough water to remain in the noodles to keep them from getting stuck together.
  • Do not allow the sauce and meat to come to a boil together. The sauce will pop out of the pan creating a big clean up.
  • Always use caution when cooking over a hot burner.
