Mike's Kitchen
I'm moving my old post from my friendster blog to here and found something useful. ;) Check it out.
Since I've moved to Temasek Green, eating at home became my mundane task. It is simply because there are nearby supermarkets which sells all sorts of vegetables and varieties of groceries. I've always had passion for cooking; even in the days that I've lived with my grandparents back in the US. I have learned that my grandmother's casual tellings when I accompany her for shopping actually helped when I go out and shop for real groceries on my own.
Now I want to share my bit of spaghetti recipe which I've cooked and served many in the past. I've originally obtained this from one of my best pal William and modified to fit myself (since I'm a pure meat eater and he's more of seafood person; with prawns and everything).
So, without further delay, here is the recipe.

Italian Style Spaghetti Recipe
1 tin of luncheon meat (pork/chicken/beef)
1 pack of hotdog (only need 3 stick)
1 pack of fresh ham
2 red/green/yellow capsican
1 pack of asparagus
1 cube of butter
1 pack of 500g spaghetti noodles or macaroni
3 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil or vegetable oil
1 Prego or Raguletto Pasta Sauce with mushrooms (glass container)
1 Prego Pasta Sauce (tin)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pack of shredded mozzarella cheese
Preparation:
1 tin of luncheon meat must be sliced into small little cubes size of the tip of the finger. 3 sticks of hotdog must be sliced into slanted slices. Fresh ham must be sliced into medium slices and make sure they're not too small. Cut the capsican accordingly and set aside. Clean the pack of asparagus, chopping off the unwanted parts and slice them in the way you want.
1 pack of 500g spaghetti noodles or macaroni must be heated for 10 minutes until they're soft and set aside. Applying layer of butter over the noodles would make the smell more presentable.
Cooking:
Preheat the nonstick pan or bowl to 375 degrees and pour 3 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil or vegetable oil. Add additional 1/2 inch thick of butter slice after the oil is hot.
Make sure you clear the way before you add sliced meat into the bowl because the oil may blast towards you. Fry until meat is red and add all the vegetables afterwards. Add additional 1/2 inch thick of butter slice and cook until the vegetables are fully cooked. Add pasta sauces and clean the containers using a bit of water, and flush them into the bowl. Cook for another 5 minutes and add shredded cheese onto the layer of spaghetti.
Mix the spaghetti and sauce; add mozzarella cheese on top and serve.
Best to accompany with Red Wine.
