This is one of the fastest quick dinner recipes in our list of spaghetti meatballs recipes. You are eating a delicious spaghetti within 30 minutes!
Of course you need the fastest cooking spaghetti you can find, although a normal ready in 10 minutes spaghetti will do fine as well.
The secret of this spaghetti meatballs recipe lies in the use of Italian sausages (or any sausage in your butcher’s shop that you think will taste delicious in a spaghetti)
Bring water to the boil for cooking your spaghetti.
Cut 1 onion in slices and start frying in oil in a non-stick pan.
Get the sausages out of their skin and make then into meatballs. Add them to the onions in the pan.
Cut 1 or 2 long red chilies and add to the pan.
As soon as your water boils, add the spaghetti (just put them in according to the time they need to cook and the time you still have left in your 30 minutes…).
Dice 3 fresh organic tomatoes, add 3 cloves garlic, some tomato paste, a small teaspoon of rock-salt or sea-salt (the tastier, the better) and add water until you have about half a liter (1 pint). Mix in a blender and add to the pan. Bring to the boil as fast as you can. Meanwhile get yourself a piece of bread, put some mustard on 1 side and add to the pan.
Let boil on a low fire for 20 minutes and serve with your spaghetti.

More and more people die due to liver cancer or heart disease these days due to :
We only have one earth and we only have one life, that’s why health is out most important asset.
Obese people should follow a weight loss program on the spot.
And all of us should start eating organic food. Food supplements is again an illusion when there is real organic food available.
My lime tree is giving me "tons and tons’ of organic lime these days, so I am trying to find new recipes…
Having a good digestion in mind and on the lookout for quick dinner recipes : I thought to make myself a homemade digestive…
I took 1 lime, didn’t peel it and threw it in the smoothie blender with some water and sugar.
The result was a green drink which at best reminds me on Schweppes tonic water.
Homemade Bitter Lemon Schweppes Digestive
(the keyword is bitter…)
Although that could sound like a compliment, the first time I drank Schweppes as a little kid, I wondered why anybody even would think about drinking some bitter drink like that.
40 years later I re-invented the same bitterness: and the longer you leave the drink un-chilled, the more bitter it becomes.
So if you are lazy and have a poor digestion system: start your mean with this tonic water digestive look alike.
If you want a drink to enjoy during your dinner, change lime into calamansi lime: it does make a huge difference when it comes to less bitterness.
If you ever wondered why they call it Schweppes Bitter Lemon and not Schweppes bitter lime… most likely lime is the most bitter compared to lemon or calamansi lime after you blend it completely.

This for sure is my all time favorite soup: hot (not that you need to blow your nose every 5 seconds, then it is too hot…), spicy, sour, sweet and with lot’s of coconutmilk: simply delicious!
An all oriental cooking favorite: Thai Tom yum soup, also known as Tom Yam soup or tom yam kung or tom yum goong. An easy recipe that combines the typical Thai recipe flavors of sweet, sour, spicy hot and fish sauce salty. Add some coconut-milk to "soften" the heat…
