Meaty Filipino Style Spaghetti

February 9, 2019 by Manny 7 Comments

Spaghetti is one of the dishes we adopted from foreign cultures and our version of spaghetti is somehow different from the original Italian style spaghetti which only consists of tomato sauce plus herbs and spices. What makes our spaghetti really Pinoy is the addition of banana ketchup, ground meat and hotdog.

So why use Italian style spaghetti sauce in this recipe instead of the sweet style or just tomato sauce and tomato paste? With the varieties we tried when we are cooking spaghetti, I think our taste buds like the Italian spaghetti sauce but you can also substitute it with tomato sauce and about 1/4 cup tomato paste.

    When simmering, the fire must be low or high?

      1 kilo of spaghetti can have up to 8 servings to people with big appetite and up to 10 people who eat normally. You can reduce all the ingredients to half if you want to serve only 4 people.
