Ingredients
- 16 ounces ring-shaped pasta (Anelli Siciliani)
- 30 ounces tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cantanzaro herbs, (such as Savory Spice Shop® Cantanzaro herbs)
- 2 teaspoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 16 ounces Italian-style meatballs
- 1/2 cup freshly shaved Parmesan cheese, or as needed, for garnish
- fresh basil, for garnish
Directions
-
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in pasta and return to a boil. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, drain pasta, and set aside.
-
Add tomato sauce, Cantanzaro herbs, sugar, salt. and pepper to the pot; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
-
Meanwhile, cut each meatball into 4 pieces. Roll each piece into a mini meatball. Drop meatballs into sauce; simmer until heated through, about 10 minutes. If sauce seems too thick, thin out by adding pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
-
Stir in cooked pasta rings. Garnish with basil leaves and Parmesan shavings and serve immediately.
