Then transfer the pot with the water over a stove to be boiling for a few minutes. Ensure that the boiling phase is fairly rapid, and this means that the boiling should be achieved sin as little as minutes. Once this part has been concluded, then you can reduce the stove temperature and heat to a medium high level.
You must then transfer the spaghetti noodles onto the spot. If you are not sure on the measurement, then you can use this as a guideline: approximately two ounces of the ordinarily dry strips of the noodles is usually equivalent to a serving of the popular noodles.

Do not make the heat too much, as this would lead to a scorching effect on the sauce. Instead go for something along the medium high range. Add a few chopped onions and garlic, depending on your taste and the quantity at hand. Then stir this mixture until the onions and the garlic have softened a bit. Then you can add your beef and let it crumble in the mixture. Cook on until the beef also is cooked. This should be achieved using a little low heat.
Add other ingredients depending on the method you prefer to have your spaghetti cooked, and depending on your preferences in spices and taste. Add salt and pepper of course, and allot the sauce to simmer for about ten minutes. You may then choose to serve this warm or allow it to cool down for a bit before serving.
In the end your spaghetti is ready and should be served with the sauce. There are variations to this technique.
