Directions:
All you really need to chop for dinner is the onion and the garlic clove, which you should cut up into larger squares.
Additionally, now is a good time to start boiling 2 liters of water for the spaghetti. There was a small accident in my kitchen today, so there are no pictures here.) When the water is boiling, add 1/2 TBSP salt and add the spaghetti. Cook the spaghetti until just barely al dente, lowering the heat so that the water doesn’t boil over. Later on in the recipe, we will either completely cook them through or make them al dente. We’ll take care of the meat gravy while the spaghetti cooks.
Grab a large skillet, with a deeper bottom. Melt the butter or clarified butter over medium-high heat. For about a minute, place onions on top of the melted butter and slightly reduce it. When adding the ground beef, crumble it with a spatula. Add the minced garlic along with 1 teaspoon each of salt, black pepper, and cumin. Mix everything thoroughly, then cook the mixture while occasionally stirring. If you think it would be necessary, turn the heat down a little. Add 1/2 cup of water to the pan once the beef has begun to brown and the onions have begun to caramelize. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low, and simmer the mixture for 5 minutes.
The timing of spaghetti cooking and gravy frying should coincide. Bring the pot next to the meat mixture and turn off the heat under the spaghetti. Fish out the slightly undercooked spaghetti with a pair of tongues and add it to the skillet with the meat.
Take a ladle, go under the spaghetti, and pour 2 cups of water onto the meat mixture.
Mix everything very well. Coat the spaghetti in the buttery goodness. Let the spaghetti rest for 4-5 minutes in the covered skillet with the heat reduced to medium-low. Feel free to add a little more water if you feel like it needs it. That’s the best kind of water to cook everything in.
Verify the spaghetti’s spices are in order and that it doesn’t need any additional salt before serving. It can be served with some cheese or a small amount of marinara sauce. That’s it; it shouldn’t take you more than 20 minutes to put it all together, and then you’ll be ready to go with a delicious dinner.
