Boil Spaghetti.
By a pound and a half of ground beef.
Cook the beef in a pan, and add in lots of ketchup.
Add in ketchup until it melts, turns orange and oily, and the beef is pleasantly coated with this mixture.
Put the beef/ketchup mixture on the spaghetti and it as is.
DO NOT ADD ANY SORT OF SAUCE OR SEASONING.
It might not sound appealing, but this stuff is freakin delicous.
breading mix:
flour
very smashed saltine crackers (no additional salt needed on accounta these babies)
paprika
black pepper
onion powder
Heat a large skillet (very preferably cast iron) over medium heat with about 1/4 inch of oil in it. It's hot when you drop in one drop of water and it spits oil all over the place.
Trim off any fat along the edge of a THIN sliced round steak. Coat it with the breading mix and then pound it with a meat tenderizer 'til it's mighty thin and about to fall apart. You gotta hit it like you mean it!
Dunk the tenderized steak in some well beaten eggs. Then coat it with a nice thick layer of the breading mix and lovingly ease it into the hot skillet. After a few minutes, when the juices start to come up through the top side of the breading mix and the bottom side is nice and golden brown, carefully turn it over with tongs so as to avoid splashing the hot oil everywhere--also, you don't want to be too rushed as it's good if most of the oil drains off of the cooked side as you are turning it. Cook it for a few more minutes. Slowly lift it out of the skillet with the tongs, allowing the oil to drain back into the pan.
Put it on a plate and slather it with an obscene amount of country gravy and you're ready to eat.
