Description
Oma's Spaghetti, my German Grandmother's take on Spaghetti is a quick, savory dish that takes 30 minutes to make. Made with ground beef, onions and celery sauteed in BUTTER! Love this pasta! This recipe is a family favorite! I hope you'll give this recipe a try and let me know what you think!

Ingredients
1 pound Ground Sirloin
1 Small Onion, Diced
2 Stalks Celery
1 Small Can Diced Tomatoes
4 Tablespoons Butter
1 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Pepper
Instructions
Step 1: Sweat the Onions on low heat in 1 Tablespoon of Butter until just translucent. You don't want the onions to caramelize. You just want them softened, white in color and kind of opaque.
Step 2: Add the Ground Sirloin and some salt and pepper, and stir it in with the onions until the beef is browned. The beef should be pretty tasty at this point. So give it a try and add some more salt if it needs it. This way, you are layering the flavors and building the foundation for a great tasting sauce.
Step 3: Once the beef is browned and tasty, mix in the tomatoes and the celery. Put the lid on the pan and let it simmer away for 15-20 minutes.
Step 4: Add 3 Tablespoons of Butter to finish the sauce and give it a smooth texture. And Serve on your favorite pasta.
