- Ask any Greek child about their favourite meal and Makaronia Me Kima will be up there on the list! You will find many Greek recipes with variations of this delicious dish, but on today's video we're showing you a recipe we usually use in our family. It has less sauce but it's very flavoursome and easy to make.
Please do not confuse this recipe with Spaghetti Bolognese, which is a traditional Italian recipe and has nothing to do with the recipe in this video.

Great recipe
Thank you :) It's easy and delicious :)
Love this recipe, is it possible to get written instructions added to the description of each recipe video? It would make following it much easier, since the recipe video is quite long it can be hard to remember all at once :)
Many thanks
Hi Alex. Thank you very much for your comment and feedback. There are two main reasons why we don't put full written instructions for the recipes in our videos: The first reason is purely for the survival of the channel. The more people watch our videos, the more RUclips's algorithm suggests the videos to people who may not be aware of us, so it helps us grow our channel. If we place full instructions, people would just pause the video and read the instructions. This would show RUclips's algorithm that people cick on our video but don't actually watch it, which in turn would make it believe that the video is not interesting enough to watch, resulting in reaching less and less people. The second reason (and why our recipe videos are long) is because we try to keep the video rolling while we cook. So, you can just play the video on your mobile/tablet and cook the recipe at the same time as you're watching it, pausing where necessary :)
Not massively different from a meat ragu...of course, no aromatics besides the bay leaf and onion. I've always loved the addition of all spice to meat stews - I assume is Greek?
I love Vincenzo's Plate and I love Greekosphy 🙂Thanks
Tony
Hi Tony. The recipe is 100% Greek although (as I mentioned in the video) it varies in different parts of Greece and in different families. You're right, it's more like a ragu. :)
@@Greekosophy It's safe to say Greece and Italy share close cultural ties - I loves em both 🙂
I'm Greek and this is wrong.
You need to caramelize the onions and garlic first, it would be better if you added green or red peppers. His meat had too much water, he should have drained it so it can brown.
You do not put bay leaves or allspice in Greek spaghetti sauce, bay leaf is usually reserved for dishes like lentil soup and various stews.
You don't put cinnamon directly on the meat, if you're using tomato paste, you first make a sauce with water then add the cinnamon, he also he put too much. You also add clove powder, that's the traditional way.
We DO NOT USE RED WINE or any wine.
What we do is with the spaghetti, after it's boiled, we drain it, we use oil in the same pot that's now dry and heat it up, then add the drained spaghetti and mix it. Also we don't mix the sauce with spaghetti, the way it is served is spaghetti first and sauce on top, then use your favorite cheese.
His pasta sauce ended up being too watery.
Hi there! Merry Christmas first of all :) Thank you very much for your comments. Please check the start of the video where I explain that this recipe is one we have in our family. So, whether you like its method or not, the video shows the exact recipe and cooking method (as we do with all other recipes). By the way, do you live in Greece or you live abroad? I'm asking as you will not normally find some of the methods you describe in most homes in Greece. For example, you will find that in Greece the use of bay leaves and/or allspice in red sauces is prominent. When it comes to meat, Mpahari (all spice) is a regular ingredient especially in Politiki Kouzina (cuisine from the Greeks of Asia Minor). You will also hardly ever see Greeks in Greece diluting the cinammon in water first (it defines the whole point of blending the spice in with the meat) or adding the drained pasta in heated olive oil. As for not using any wine, ask any Greek chef or even cook in restaurants around Greece and I am sure they will disagree with you :) Anyway, our best wishes for the New Year and thank you again for watching and commenting on our video :)

Hey, I live mostly in Athens, Greece. Honestly never seen allspice being used in Greek cooking and I have family in all parts of Greece. I even had to google it and I was right it's not commonly used in Greek cuisine, thankfully I wasn't losing my mind.
Also Bay leaves are used in certain red sauces not all, never seen bay leaves used in spaghetti sauce. My ancestors from my father's side of the family come from Izmir(Smyrna), Turkey, my grandmother cooked for me and never used allspice. She mainly used cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and on special occasions saffron was used.
I know red wine is sometimes used by some for making stifado in order to sweeten the taste of the onion but that's about it, Also I've only seen Greeks in Canada and the U.S toss their spaghetti with the meat sauce, in Greece the meal is layered and everyone has some Mizithra or kafalotyri in the refrigerator to grate on top of the spaghetti.
Hello again :) I'm very surprised that you say allspice (μπαχάρι) is not commonly used in Greek cuisine, when the Greek word for 'spices' is μπαχαρικά! Where exactly did you google it and found that? I have googled greek cuisine and allspice and it brought up many recipes and information which do show allspice is used in Greek cuisine. Maybe your family does not use it in its dishes, but ask around in any place that serves Politiki Kouzina (especially) and I'm very sure they will agree :) With regards to how the pasta is served, again I did not say in the video that this is how Greeks do it, I specifically say this is how I do it, this is how I prefer to do it so that the spaghetti is covered in the sauce. This is a method Italians do and I prefer, because all the spaghetti gets sauce :)
THE RESULT IS A FLUFFY SMOOTHY FOR 80 AND NINETEES WITHOUT TEETH.............TOTALLY GARBISCH FOR THE DOG.
Hi again Ronald. What's wrong with cooking your dog or your granny a tasty, homemade Greek dish??!! If you actually make this dish Iam sure you would like to get old fast enough to enjoy it every day! :)
WITH ALL THAT REDICOULOUS SPOENERY IS THE BITE OFF ITT TOTAL GONE..................YOU AR FULLEY CRAZEY.........THE WOODEN SPOON IS TOTALL LOSS WHEN YOU ARE FINISCHED............IT DOES NOT TASTE LESS BETTER THAN LETT IT REST ON LOW FIRE.
Hi Ronald. No need to shout mate, with all these capital letters and mispelt words :) There are loads of different recipes on how to make this dish and in this video we presented one recipe which we have been using in our family. Whether you like the video or not is your prerogative. But unless you try the recipe and taste it, any opinion you may have of it or how we made it, is based on your biased view and your misconceptions.
My god, who put the fire up your butt ??
