  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well with your hands.

  2. 2

    Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.

  3. 3

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.

  4. 4

    Pour in crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and gently add the meatballs.

  5. 5

    Cover and simmer for 30-45 minutes, or until meatballs are cooked through, stirring occasionally.

  6. 6

    While the sauce is simmering, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package directions until al dente.

  7. 7

    Drain the spaghetti and add it to the pot with the sauce and meatballs. Toss to coat.

  8. 8

    Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, if desired.
