Linguine with Meatball Stroganoff

There is not much that beats a quick, filling pasta on a busy week night. I must have mentioned our love for meatballs before and this linguine with Meatball Stroganoff is a winner every time I make it.

I prefer to bake meatballs, but seeing as these are formed quite small, you can easily fry them in a pan and follow the rest of the recipe.

Once again, even though the ingredients look like a lot, it is a very quick and easy recipe.

I remember, not long ago!, I had this fear of any recipe containing more than 5 ingredients.  In a very short time, I have learnt how to organize myself before I start to cook.

Most recipes, although not all, the ingredients are given in the order of use.  Therefore I always take out the ingredients, organize them on the counter in the same way as the recipe.

Grouped together where applicable – and once I have everything ready, the cooking part is real easy.

This is when I try a new recipe, I have to add – old favorites which I know by heart, well, the ingredients still gets taken out and placed on the counter, but in no particular order as I know which goes in where and when.

If you prefer your meatballs covered in the sauce, and not arranged right on top separately, add them to step #6 and then serve over the linguine.
