Instructions- Mix all ingredients up to the ground meat.
- Gently mix in the ground meat with hands and form into around 16 meatballs.
- Bake for 15 min at 400°F.
- Sauté the pancetta.
- Add the onions and garlic.
- Add the tomatoes, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
- Simmer and allow to reduce (about 15 min).
- Mix spaghetti, sauce and meatballs. Add parsley and Parmesan to taste.
