Spaghetti And Meatballs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 tablespoon garlic clove, chopped
    1 medium onion, chopped
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    italian seasoning
    1 (6 ounce) can Italian-style tomato paste
    2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans tomatoes seasoned with basil garlic & oregano, chopped
    2 (28 ounce) cans Italian-style tomato sauce
    1/8 cup red wine
    1 cup fennel head, chopped (optional)
    1 teaspoon fennel seed
    garlic salt
    pepper
    salt
    sugar
    2 lbs ground chuck
    1/2 lb Italian sausage
    1 teaspoon garlic clove, minced
    fennel seed
    1 small onion, finely chopped
    1 cup breadcrumbs
    2 eggs
    1 (16 ounce) box thin spaghetti
Preparation
    Mix together ground beef, Italian sausage, 1 tsp minced garlic, a sprinkle of fennel seed, small onion, dash of garlic salt, dash of pepper, dash of salt, 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning, bread crumbs, eggs.
    Roll into balls and bake at 350 degrees until done (about 20 minutes).
    Saute in 4 1/2 QT or bigger pan, medium onion, 1/2 TBL chopped garlic, chopped fennel in olive oil until onion is tender. Add 1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning, tomato paste, chopped tomatoes, tomato sauce, red wine, 1 tsp fennel seed, dash of garlic powder, dash of salt & pepper and 1 TBL sugar.
    Add the meatballs when they're done baking.
    Let simmer for an hour or more. Pan will be very full. I usually use a little less tomato sauce, so it's not so full.
    Serve over spaghetti noodles.
