For a richer flavor, try browning the ground beef in a tablespoon of olive oil. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a touch of heat. Grated Parmesan cheese is a delicious topping just before serving. If you want a more complex sauce, add a clove of minced garlic along with the onion. For a vegetarian version, substitute the ground beef with a can of lentils or diced mushrooms.

01 Step
Recipe View 7 mins In a large skillet or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef with the chopped onion over medium heat, breaking up the beef with a spoon. Cook until the beef is no longer pink and the onions are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
02 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Stir in the tomato sauce, water (or broth), salt, parsley, pepper, and basil. Mix well to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer (about 3-5 minutes).
03 Step
Recipe View 25 mins Break the spaghetti in half and gradually add it to the simmering sauce, ensuring it's mostly submerged. Cover the skillet or pot, reduce the heat to low, and simmer gently for 20-25 minutes, or until the spaghetti is tender and the sauce has thickened.
04 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Stir the spaghetti occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. If the sauce becomes too thick or the spaghetti starts to dry out before it's fully cooked, add additional water or broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
