The best spaghetti with okra you’ll ever taste! Although it’s not technically a Cuban dish, I did create the recipe and it is half my nationality. Beware that it is a little on the spicy side. Great with garlic or French bread.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds ground beef
- 2 (24 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce
- 1 (16 ounce) package frozen sliced okra
- 5 cooked sausages, sliced
- 1 cup water
- 1 (6 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
- 1 (5 ounce) bottle hot sauce (such as Cholula®), or to taste
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium orange bell pepper, diced
- 1 (4.5 ounce) jar minced garlic
- 1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
- 2 (16 ounce) packages spaghetti
- 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese, or to taste
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 2
Combine spaghetti sauce, okra, sausage, water, mushrooms, hot sauce, onion, bell peppers, garlic, and olives in a large pot; bring to a simmer. Rinse ground beef and add to the pot. Continue to simmer for at least 1 hour.
Step 3
While sauce simmers, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
Step 4
Spread spaghetti on serving plates. Cover each with some Cheddar cheese. Add some sauce and top with Parmesan cheese.
Cook’s Note:
Spaghetti sauces with garlic, mushrooms, Parmesan cheese, etc. work best for this recipe.
