Ina’s Tip
We also tested the air fryer method and it worked like a charm. 180 °C for 15 - 20 minutes.
Method:
Cut the sausage into 5 cm pieces. Slit and peel away the skin of each, squash the meat up and roll into golf ball size meatballs. Fry the balls in the oil in a pan or Anne uses her air fryer. In the meantime boil the spaghetti. Drain spaghetti reserving ½ cup (125 ml) of the pasta water and return spaghetti to the pot. Add Pasta Spice and olive oil. Toss the meatballs with about ⅓ of the Pasta Sauce, add the rest of the Sauce to the spaghetti and rinse out the bottle with the ½ cup (125 ml) of reserved pasta water. Add it to the spaghetti and stir through. Delicious with a tossed salad.
