Notes

The recipe above is the one she verbally told me at the beginning of November in 2023.

This recipe is the one that was handwritten and in the pantry. The writing is hers, but with lots of bits that were crossed out and written over. Lots of changes made while she worked on this recipe. I've just written it out with the additions she made and put them in places where they make sense (some of the quantities were listed elsewhere not where the ingredients were first mentioned).

Boil spaghetti in a pot with coarse salt until soft, or as you like it.

While the spaghetti is boiling, fry lots of onions in a pan with butter until nicely sauted (transparent to browning in colour. Add 1 can tomato soup to onions).

Drain spaghetti when done and put in with onions and soup. Mix well through spaghetti and add lots of salt. Once thoroughly combined, put the mixture in a very well buttered baking dish.

Bake 375 for more than an hour.

After 1/2 hour, mix it around and add butter chunks over the top and let it seep in.
