Description

Make this delicious Japanese-style ketchup spaghetti in just 25 minutes, and watch your kids devour it in no time!

 


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 pound dried spaghetti
  • 2 tablespoons butter (for vegan: vegan butter)
  • 5 ounces onion, thinly sliced into half moons
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, cored and sliced into strips
  • 8 button mushrooms, sliced
  • 6 ounces wiener sausage, cut into bite size pieces (for vegan: 2 vegan Beyond sausages)
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 cup milk (for vegan: unsweetened oat milk)
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup pasta water
  • Grated parmesan cheese (omit for vegan)
  • Tabasco sauce

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (add 2 tablespoons salt per 3-4 quarts of water).
  2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat, and add the onion slices. Saute for a few minutes, until the slices are translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Add the sausages and cook for 3 minutes. Add the bell pepper, mushrooms and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the bell pepper slices are soft but still yielding a little crunch. Check that the sausages are fully cooked (if not, cook for a few more minutes) and transfer the ingredients to a plate. Set aside.
  4. Using the same pan, stir in the ketchup, milk, and sugar. Keep stirring until the sauce begins to bubble.
  5. Return the sausages and veggies to the pan and stir to mix the ingredients. Turn the heat off.
  6. Boil the pasta according to the directions on the package and scoop out 1/4 cup of pasta water just before draining.
  7. Drain the pasta and put it back in the pot. Pour the pasta water, spaghetti sauce, sausages, and veggies over it and use tongs or chopsticks to coat the spaghetti evenly.
  8. Serve with parmesan cheese and tabasco sauce.

Notes

Keep the leftovers refrigerated in a storage container for up to 4 days.
