olive oil

Meatballs
Cook onions and garlic in 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat until softened (about 5 minutes), stirring occasionally. In a large bowl, add the onion/garlic mixture and all the other ingredients. Combine everything by hand until well mixed. Firmly form 1” meatballs by hand. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat. Brown meatballs on all sides. Once browned, move meatballs to a paper towel to drain some of the fat.

Tomato Sauce
Prepare tomato sauce while meatballs are baking.
Cook onions and garlic in oil in a pot over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes stirring occasionally. Stir in tomatoes and simmer sauce uncovered until slightly thickened for 10 minutes and liquid is reduced. Add oregano, basil, Italian seasoning, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, stirring on occasion, then turn to a low heat. Transfer meatballs into the pot, cover and simmer for about an hour.

Putting it all together
Cook a 1 lb box of spaghetti to al dente, drain, and plate it. Place a few spoonfuls of sauce on top of the noodles followed by meatballs. Finish it off with a couple tablespoons of parsley and grated cheese.
