Filipino Sweet Style Spaghetti: Cheap and Lazy Version
Quick and easy meal,
Spaghetti for comfort's sake,
Warmth in every bite.
Hello foodies! Last night I was a little lazy to go outside and buy some ingredients from the market. Luckily we have some spaghetti packs lying around and a little bit of everything on my shelf.
Today I will share with you a very Filipino way of cooking pasta, sweet style! Here are the ingredients.
Sweet Filipino Pasta
500g of Spaghetti Noodles
500g of Sweet Spaghetti Sauce
1 spoon of Condensed Milk
5 cloves of garlic
1 onion
1/2 can of liver spread as you see in the photo hehe
1/4 Kl of ground meat
A pinch of brown sugar depends on your sugar level :)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Not all Filipinos use some ingredients here, but this is what my tastebud is accustomed to and what I usually look for a spaghetti.
To start, I first cook the noodles for 9 minutes, this is my sweet spot to get that al dente-ness of a pasta noodle. In boiling water, I add salt and a little bit of cooking oil. Adding salt to the water gives the pasta a flavor, sometimes I add pepper too. The cooking oil prevents the pasta noodles from sticking together while they are being cooked.
At exactly 9 minutes, I strain the pasta and let it cool. I also set aside some pasta water if I needed it for the sauce.
Now for the sauce, I just chopped the onion and minced the garlic for frying. Until the garlic is cooked to golden brown and the onions are a little bit transparent I add the ground pork meat.
Saute the ground pork until it everything is cooked. I just love tossing food, not that it is necessary but I just love the sensation of quickly mixing the ingredient together.
Once the meat is cooked, you can now add the liver spread and sweet-style spaghetti sauce. Once it is boiling that's the time to put the condensed milk. The condensed milk will add a sweet and creamy flavor to the dish it is a secret to make children eat more of my pasta.
After all of that is done add salt and pepper to taste. I also add some chili pepper or cayenne pepper sometimes to balance the sweetness and spice of my dish. Because I believe that my dishes should always have a balance between the flavor profiles.
Once you are satisfied with the taste and the sauce is at a boil you can now start plating. Pour the sauce on your pasta noodles and viola! A very quick and easy comfort snack for a child at heart like me.
To be honest, I personally don't like the consistency of the spaghetti sauce so I recommend you buy a different brand.
And this is me enjoying the sweet Filipino-style spaghetti!
Reflective questions:
What does comfort mean to you?
How does food play a role in providing comfort?
How can we find balance between comfort food and maintaining a healthy diet?

Except sa spaghetti sauce, your recipe is the same as mine. Gusto ko yung may na fried din na bell pepper sa spaghetti I just learned it recently sa isang karinderya nearby mas fresh yung lasa nya at di nakakumay.
Are you fan of cheese din in your spag? I Noticed na wala sya sa list.
I love cheese sa spag, ang problem lang wala akong pambili ng cheese kaya kung anong meron lang sa shelf ko at ref ginamit ko HAHAHA send cheese please.
I will definitely try bell peppers too
HAHAHAHAH pass! Naghirap na me now, meet-up now sardinas at asin bukas kami ngayon.
Great job mate the food looks great, it is interesting to see other peoples comfort food from around the world, here in the UK my comfort food would be a roast dinner.
This normally consists of some kind of roasted meat like chicken, beef or lamb with roasted potatoes plus 2 other vegetables with sage and onion stuffing, finished with gravy.
This picture was taken with my phone at one of our eating times.
Have the best day @cmmndrbawang

wow commanderbawang spaghetti style o.o. can become a famous cook now
I've never tried a sweet spaghetti before! I appreciate seeing your process. I love cooking and making food too, and getting all the flavor elements to harmonize like musical notes. I mention that because you seem to have an understanding of that too, since you mentioned balancing flavor profiles. That's how you do it, exactly! In any case, thank you for sharing your way of making pasta! I found it fascinating! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
Thank you for appreciating my taste fam!! 100% sometimes I go extreme and put some hot sauce in my spaghetti too :)
You're most welcome, absolutely! Haha...I have a very high spice tolerance, and so I put hot sauce and hot peppers in most things, even my superfood fire coffee! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
