SPAGHETTI GRILLED CHEESE



Spaghetti Grilled Cheese image

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 slices soft Italian Bread
1 tablespoon Butter at room temp
1/2 teaspoon Basil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tablespoon Finely Grated Parmesan
1/2 cup
Bolognese Sauce
1 cup Angel Hair Pasta

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix the garlic, basil, and butter together. Then spread this on one side of each slice of the soft Italian bread. Next spread 1/2 tablespoon of the finely grated Parmesan on buttered side of each slice of bread, lightly pressing it into the butter.
  • Bring a pot of salt water to a bowl, add the angel hair pasta, and cook until al dente, and drain.
  • Stir the cooked angel hair into 1/2 cup of the bolognese sauce.
  • Lay a piece of the buttered garlic bread down, buttered side facing down. Top with 3 slices of the fresh mozzarella, arranging it so it covers the bread. Spread the bolognese covered angel hair over the mozzarella, and top with another layer of mozzarella. Add the second slice of bread on top, buttered side facing up.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add the sandwich and cover the skillet. There is no need to grease the pan. The key here is to go low and slow with heat, and not to move the sandwich. After 5-6 minutes the first side of the sandwich should be golden brown, carefully flip the sandwich, and cover the pan again. Toast the second side of the sandwich and serve immediately.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 34

1 1/2 pounds spaghetti
Meatballs in BBQ Gravy, recipe follows
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons scallions, thinly sliced
Grated Parmesan
For the gravy:
1 pound bacon, sliced into lardons
1/2 cup olive oil
1 carrot, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves, minced
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 glasses Chianti
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 small can tomato paste
1 small can chipotle peppers in adobo
3 (28-ounce) cans chopped tomatoes
Sea salt, preferable grey
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pound ground sirloin
1 large egg
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons Parmesan, freshly grated
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon finely chopped basil leaves
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1 cup fine dried bread crumbs
1 clove garlic, minced
Sea salt, preferably grey
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill on medium-high heat.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, cook pasta about half way according to package instructions. Drain the pasta and toss lightly with olive oil. Using a grill grate, grill the pasta over medium-high heat for about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Transfer the grilled pasta to a serving platter and spoon BBQ Gravy over the top. Place meatballs over the top and around the perimeter of the platter and top with more Gravy. Sprinkle with the sliced scallions and grated Parmesan.
  • Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and heat for 1 minute. When the oil is hot, add the bacon and render. When golden brown and beginning to crisp, add minced carrot, celery, onion, and garlic. Add a pinch of salt and saute vegetables to a light brown. Add rosemary and brown sugar and stir. Add Chianti and vinegar to pot, stir and bring to boil. Add the tomato paste, chipotles in adobo, and the chopped tomatoes. Stir and simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, skimming the top occasionally to remove any scum that forms.
  • While the BBQ gravy is simmering, make the meatballs.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the meat, egg, Worcestershire, cheese, parsley, oregano, basil, onion, bread crumbs, and garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup of water. Knead the water into the meat mixture with your hands. Knead and roll meatballs into about 1 1/2-inch balls. Place them in shallow saucepan on stove, add another 1/2 cup of water over them, and cover. Turn heat to medium, and steam for 35 minutes.
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove the meatballs from the pan. Drain the juice out of the bottom of the pan, return the meatballs to it and cover them with warm BBQ gravy. Serve on top of Grilled Spaghetti.
