- Fill a large saucepan with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling stir in the spaghetti and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered stirring occasionally until the pasta has cooked through but is still firm to the bite; about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
- While the pasta is cooking brown the bacon with the onion in a large frypan over medium heat until the bacon is almost crisp; about 10 minutes; drain excess fat and stir in the mushrooms and tomato paste. Bring the sauce to a boil.
- Return the cooked spaghetti to the saucepan then mix with sauce and serve.

Very good dish and very easy to make. I added a pinch of rosemary to the onions while cooking them though and I did not add the bacon since most of my fam is veggetarians but it still came out delish! - 30 Sep 2010 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This is great! I added a little basil and used whole tomatoes instead of the sauce. I also used whole wheat pasta, not that it matters much, just a different texture to me. I served this with garlic bread. - 03 Mar 2011 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
My grandmother made this without the mushrooms when I was a little girl visiting on their farm. She called it "spaghetti red". I encourage anyone to try it. It is simple and very delicious. Serve with crusty bread and a salad. - 20 Apr 2012 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
