Filipino Spaghetti is a filipino take on the Italian classic spaghetti bolognese dish. This version has a sweet tomato sauce with ground pork and sliced hotdogs. I use evaporated milk to sweeten the sauce, but you can also use brown sugar or banana ketchup.
It’s so simple to make too. Simply cook up a large pot of spaghetti. Make a sauce by sautéing onion and garlic and ground pork. Mix in hotdog pieces and some minced veggies and simmer with water before adding more tomatoes and simmering again. Mix the sauce with the spaghetti and serve topped with grated cheese. Yum!
To make Filipino Spaghetti, you will need the following ingredients:
Place the spaghetti in a large pot of water and cook according to the package directions.
Sauté the garlic, onion, and oil in a large saucepan for 3-4 minutes until soft and fragrant. Add the ground pork. Brown the meat until it is cooked through.
Stir in the minced vegetables and hot dog pieces until fully combined.
Add the water to the pork mixture and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
Mix in the tomato sauce and tomato paste. Continue to simmer for 10-15 more minutes.
Pour in the evaporated milk and salt. Stir until fully incorporated.
In a large pot or mixing bowl, combine the noodles and the tomato sauce.
Serve topped with grated cheese.
