post your poverty meal and I'll post a superior version (starting with spaghetti)

I don't remember who it was that just posted spaghetti and red sauce. But here is the non poverty version.





What makes it non-poverty?


spaghetti doesn't hold sauce as well as rigatoni (or the elbows) I run out of rigatoni so I used elbows. Still a much better choice than spaghetti.
san marzano tomatoes
red wine
tomato paste
long simmer
extra better added
noodles undercooked in water, finished cooking in sauce.

freshly grated parnesan cheese, as opposed to your poverty 0 cheese....seriously wtf bro?


unrelated to it being non-poverty, but I made a lot of it so I can reheat it whenever I want more. (It'd be better to always cook fresh noodles whenever you want to eat it again, but the whole point of me making a lot is so I can be lazy later so I'm willing to sacrifice a little quality on the reheats.)

Idk what you are expecting from pasta and red sauce, but obviously this isn't a super high end dish. Just a high quality version of a common dish.
Really the only way I can think of that this could've been better is if I had made the pasta fresh.

Eggs look a bit dry. That'd probably be the most obvious improvement I'd go for.
I think especially for a burrito, a really small curd is nicer for scrambled eggs too.
Could also do a homemade tortilla... This is has some potential.

That looks good af. Would take me a long time though. I don't make much seafood.

Alright. Done.


Improvement #1.)
Homemade tortilla. Haven't ever made these before. Would've liked them thinner, but I don't have a rolling pin so I did the best I could. Still good af. Probably make them from now on instead of buying.


Improvement #2.) Your eggs looks dry, and like they had a very large curd. This is a bit of a preference thing, but I certainly prefer a small curd, with nice moist fluffy eggs. I made these with lots of butter and some sour cream, though you can do without the sour cream easily. Add some salt pepper and chives and voila.





improvement #3.) I see your sausage, and I raise you a steak.


final product. Absolutely delicious.

Not related to this particular dish, but I also made a pan sauce out of the fond from cooking the steak. I mean...why wouldn't I?

if you want the eggs to turn out like that, the trick is lots of butter. (maybe like 1/2 tablespoon per egg.) and stir them nonstop the entire cooking process.

my main man Babish has got the how to on a LOT of things. Heres eggs.

Yeah. Babish had them "the Gordon Ramsay way" in his video.

I usually add all of the seasoning when I plate. Looks nicer imo.
I also rarely put anything other than butter in.

Good advice. I love the texture of the Ramsay eggs but the cleanup is a pain. I'd say it's worth it.

I make the eggs in a nonstick skillet, I've got a silicone whisk that I use. But you can just use a rubber spatula. The teflon is super easy to clean.

literally the same as my first post. But brown the meat in the pot at the start. Then remove and add it back in while the sauce is simmering.
Normally I like to do redsauce with a LOT of ground beef/pork (or a combo) but I was fresh out when I made the sauce in the OP. Still good though.

But yeah. You could do chopped sausage, whole sausage, ground meat, meatballs. Doesn't matter.


Rotini is better than spaghetti, but I think a tubular noddle is best in this case...or most cases honestly.
