GRANDMA'S OLD ITALIAN SPAGHETTI SAUCE WITH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in the bottom of a large saucepan, and fry the garlic cloves 5 to 8 minutes, until brown and fragrant. Remove the garlic cloves and set aside. Place the pig's feet and pork neck bones in the saucepan and fry, turning occasionally, until the meat and bones have browned, about 15 minutes.
• Return the garlic cloves to the saucepan, and stir in the tomato paste and 1 1/2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, and pour in the tomato puree. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 3 hours, stirring from the bottom often to prevent burning, until the pig's feet are tender and the mixture begins to thicken. Stir in the sugar, pepper, and baking soda. Continue to simmer while you prepare the meatballs.
• Soak the torn bread with 1 cup of water in a bowl. Squeeze excess water out of the bread, and place the bread in a large bowl with the 6 beaten eggs, ground pork, ground veal, and ground beef. Mix thoroughly and form into 24 meatballs about 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, stir in the minced garlic and chopped fresh basil, let them cook for about 1 minute, and then add the meatballs. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and fry them on all sides until brown, about 15 minutes, working in batches, if necessary.
• Place the browned meatballs, along with the oil, garlic, and basil from the skillet into the sauce, stirring lightly to avoid breaking them. Add the whole hard-boiled eggs, and simmer for about 1 1/2 more hours, until the meatballs are cooked, the sauce is thick, and all the flavors have blended.

QUICK & EASY NINJA FOODI SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Use the sear/sauté function on the Ninja Foodi to sauté the garlic and onions with the olive oil.
• Add the ground sausage. Brown the meat until cooked through and break up the sausage into desired size. Stir in the salt & Italian seasonings.
• Once meat is cooked, turn off the sear function and add the broth. Stir and scrape up any pieces of meat off of the bottom of the cook pan.
• Add the grape tomatoes and crushed tomatoes. There is no need to stir the ingredients. Gently add the water to the pan.
• Break up the spaghetti noodles in half and loosely layer in criss cross pattern. It is important to loosely layer the pasta to avoid it clumping together and to properly cook during pressure cooking.
• Add the pressure cooking lid and set the vent to the seal position.
• Set the pressure cook time to zero and press start. The time to come to pressure will be about 10 minutes or so. Once the pressure has been reached, set a timer for 10 minutes and allow for natural pressure release.
• After the 10 minutes of natural pressure release, switch the vent to release any remaining pressure. Then carefully remove the lid.
• Gently stir the pasta. Allow for a few minutes of rest time for any extra liquid to absorb.
• Serve with basil and freshly shredded pecorino or parmesan cheese if desired.
