Spaghetti Chop Suey

Source: The Settlement Cook Book

2 pounds spaghetti
3 tablespoons fat (I use olive oil)
4 medium onions, sliced
1/2 clove garlic (I use much more!)
1/4 pound beef, chopped
1/4 pound fresh pork, chopped
1 (1 pound, 13 ounce) can tomatoes
Salt and cayenne to taste

Boil spaghetti. Fry onions and garlic until glazed; remove garlic, add meat and brown slightly. Add tomatoes, salt and cayenne and simmer for 20 minutes. Pour over the hot, drained spaghetti and serve.
