Spaghetti with Mushroom Sauce
Every once in awhile when I’m tired or lazy to cook especially in this hot weather, I usually like to cook this quick and easy pasta along with a simple salad, garlic bread and a creamy soup to satisfy all taste buds.
Here is the recipe – serves 6
500g Spaghetti
150g Ground meat (beef, chicken or pork)
1 1/2 tbsp Plain flour
1 bottle (737g) Prego Traditional sauce (here) or any flavor you like
30g Butter
1 1/2 tbsp Olive oil
1 Large onion – chopped
2 tbsp Garlic – chopped
2 tbsp White cooking wine (optional)
250-300ml Water
1/4 – 1 tsp Salt
Method:
- Cook spaghetti after you prepared the sauce.
- In a frying pan, combine butter and olive oil at low heat until butter melted, add onion and garlic and sauté until aromatic at medium heat..
- Add in ground meat and white cooking wine, stir fry meat till cooked then sprinkle plain flour on it, mix well and add some ground black pepper into it.
- Lastly pour in the Prego sauce and water, stir well (add 250ml water first, if you find the sauce is too sour add a little more water into it) and add salt to taste. Let it boil and simmer for 10 minutes at low heat.
- Meanwhile cook the spaghetti according to the instructions on the package. Drain well and add to the sauce in a deep size bowl, toss gently to combine and place pasta on serving plate. Pasta must be served hot.
- When serving sprinkle on parmensan cheese, dried basil leaves or parsley on top of pasta if preferred.
Enjoy!
Thanks Anncoo for teaching so many useful things. 🙂 Hugs!

Yes I used up the whole bottle because the sauce cannot be kept too long. Just remember to separate the sauce and spaghetti so that you can reheat the remaining sauce and spaghetti the next day.
Anncoo, do you use the entire bottle of prego sauce for this dish (serves 6)? I am really a noob in pasta. 🙂
This is an all time fav tomato sauce spaghetti in my family! I always add in other ingredients I've on hand, like prawns, button mushrooms, crabsticks, sausages etc… 🙂
Pasta is my go to lazy dish too. Haha. Yours looks yummy. My kids would definitely love this.
I love spaghetti and that platter looks so delicious and yummy..
Thank you Sandra 🙂
hehee Lyndsey, totally agree with you. When we said quick we just put everything in the pot.
Oh your much chee looks so yummy and you're so creative add chai spice 😛

Rita, thanks and I'm sure you can cook better than me :))

Ha! No Ann, I used premade store bought sauce. I always have to have some on hand when you want to throw something together quick for supper. 🙂 I do want to learn to make a good homemade sauce though.
P.S. I made some muah chee thanks to you! 😀

I love pasta! This looks so good, just like the one you would see at Italian Mama.
Delicious looking. I am a pasta fan.
Mmmm…delicious. I love that red saucy tomato look. I'm hungry!
Spaghetti with red sauce is always a great meal. Yours looks great.
Ann – It's so nice to know that you cook like this when it's hot or not feeling like cooking too! Last night I made baked meatballs and spaghetti with premade sauce. I had some leftover fresh mozzarella I had to use up. Your spaghetti looks great, can I move in with you? 😀
My kind of dish when I am lazy…
Your spags looks wonderful.. 😀
I make something like this and yes, it is made rather easily but it is so good. Your photo is bigger than life – it is as if it were on my table.
I love a simple pasta recipe and your bowl is so cute;-)
Have a wonderful weekend;-)
i try to stay away from the stove too during summer months.
Your spaghetti sounds like the perfect dinner.
Can I have that forkfull of spagetti? I am hungry just looking at it!
This is your lazy meal? I'll take it any day!
Looks tempting. This is my kids favourite. When i got no time to prepare dinner this is always the best choice 🙂
This is indeed a mouth-watering dish, light and just right for this weather. Lovely clicks!

I could eat the whole plate… This recipe looks extremely delicious!
I really enjoy mushrooms with my pasta and often buy the storebought tomato sauce with mushrooms in it. Your homemade version looks infinitely better though =D
i am with you can't beat simple pasta dishes, I am making a lot these days
haha, i learn something today, seperate the sauce and spaghetti so i can keep it for next meal.
I do love spaghetti with tomato sauce but mu hubby prefer the white one.
Yummy! I only know how to cook spaghetti with Prego 🙂
Nothing wrong with quick weekday pastas and especially not when they look as fabulous as this one!
This is… This is really fantastic!!
I do not know how to cook spaghetti but my mum loves to eat spaghetti. Think your recipe comes in helpful. 🙂
我只会烫熟面条，加上Prego酱，最多加些蟹柳和吊片猪肉丸，很怪的配搭吧！^_^
不过，已经很久没买意大利面回家了~
Chris, no problem 🙂
Gloria ~ Oh yes, kids love spaghetti very much and they always request almost every week.
Hi Lia! Welcome back 🙂

@J.O
J.O. ~ 用不完可以收在冰箱五六天吧。剩的可以拿来做pizza和三文治，也是很好吃。
我每次把剩下的酱和面条分开放，隔天在热一热，又解决一餐了。

the spaghetti looks like it got tofu bits in it…looks very satisfying!
