This dish was inspired by Italian spaghetti with meatballs in tomato sauce, but it's prepared with an Asian twist. Instead of spaghetti, we use instant noodles, and the meatballs, along with ground pork, are flavored with ginger, garlic, green onions, soy sauce, and a touch of sugar to enhance the umami flavor. The meatballs are baked in the oven and then simmered in tomato sauce for a few minutes until firm and juicy. Stir in the cooked noodles and enjoy.
