Clemenza's meatballs in The Godfather

Back when all those ingredients together didn’t cost 150 bucks.

Clemenza was one of my favorite characters. He just takes care of business.

I started adding a little bit of sugar to my sauce after seeing this movie 😂. Ngl its actually a good trick

Of all things, someone posted this recipe on fb, it said sugar, and watched this scene for the ???? Time, and didn't believe he said sugar... oh well. STILL great 2 films.

The man who taught me how to make spaghetti

😊

Paulie missed out on some great sauce.

I never understood how they saw Michael as a child when he was a lieutenant, a war veteran and a Marine.

Why don't you cut the crap I got more important thing for you to do....😅😂

Cut the crap? That’s good cooking… people gotta eat.

Me encanta esta escena , para mi es emocionante,parte de mis antepasados llegaron de Sicilia a la Argentina despues de la guerra , esta receta es tradicional y única,muy instalada en el pais 🇦🇷me recuerda mucho a mi infancia comiendo pastas con la familia.

I love how Sonny comes and says to his Godfather, "why don't you cut the crap?" Hahaha.. Love Sonny

Progresso: the official tomatoes of this thing of ours.

I take it that Michael didn't want to show any soft or weak behavior in front of the fellas, which is why he didn't say "I love you" back to Kay

Clamenza was like the cool uncle who would tell you if you're messing up. All love and respect until it ain't

They make this cooking scene just in case the movie flop the audience know how to prepare meatballs Italian style

I made Clemenza’a meatballs because I didn’t know when I’m going to have to cook for 20 guys someday

Why dont you cut the crap i got more important things for you to do, hows Paulie

Oh, Paulie we won't see him no more 😂😂😂😂😂

OH PAULIE, WON'T SEE HIM NO MORE!!!! (they cut off the part where Sonny says, "GOOD!!")

Was Sonny having second thoughts on whacking Paulie?

Sonny lighten up, an army marches on its stomach!

"Hey come over here kid, learn something - you never know, you might have to cook for twenty guys some day"

This was a major turning-point line for me as a 2000s teen with pretty narrow and juvenile interests(superheroes etc). I constantly blew off adults who were doing mundane stuff around the house like this, but something about the way Clemenza said this line.... it was like a wakeup call, and I've always taken the time to stop, pay attention, and learn any given thing in these dynamics ever since, no matter how mundane or random.

❤️

And til this day, this is exactly how I make pasta 😅

Clemenza ragging on Michael, "I love you with alla my heart, If I don't see you again-a soon, I'ma goona die,," lol

every mafia family is trying to kill you and you teach culinary lessons and give love advice lol. straight up gangster

Clemenza is one cool friend to the family.

No onions?!?

"You start with water and fry some garlic"??? Whoever wrote that never cooked in his life.

Cut the crap Sonny?! Making a good sauce is never crap!

Michael liked and respected Clemenza

Clemenzas's meatballs💀💀

Michael inspired Han Solo to say “I know” when Leia said she loved him.

Clemens’s is my favorite. I love him in this and I especially love him In 2 where he robs that rug

No onions?

Peter Clemenza: One minute he's cooking meatballs for 20 guys, the next minute he's blasting 2 guys in an elevator with a shotgun. What a dude.

A famous scene where Clemenza was teaching Michael how to be a godfather by teaching him how to make this stewed meatballs in tomato sauce.

can anyone confirm if this is a good recipe? i wanna try it😂

Seen the Godfather probably 1,500 times. Clemenza is far and away my favorite character. "Ah Paulie, won't see him no more

Every bit of it, in whole or in parts, is close to perfection. Richard S. Castellano's Clemenzs is brilliant throughout, but, "Aw, Paulie, won't see him no more" is great, every single time.

This was the last movie that tap water was ever consumed.

Hey Clemenzo. Gomba. You forgot the Basil and oragno. I'm Calabasas and Secilian we use no sugar in the sauce. You got garlic in the meatballs why in the sauce it ruins the flavor of tomatoes. Lots of love.

Don't put too many onions in it.

"add a little bit of WIIIIIIINE"

Bear in mind Clemenza (Richard Castellano) was only in his late 30s when his GF scenes were shot. So consider what a horrible physical specimen he was. He of course keeled over @ 55.

Clemenza is one of the greatest characters in movie history. I refuse to watch GF III because he was not a part of it.
Like him I love to cook (actually, love to eat). White wine added much flavor to the dish. Now in my old age I've become a teetotaler and no longer use wine. Yeah, the flavor is not quite the same but it's still good.
Mangia!

The sauce in Goodfellas had to many onions....this one has too few.

And yes, put sugar in your sauce you freaking barbarians.

I never take cooking advice from a fat duck FU

Whydon you cut the crap? Eh?😂
