Ingredients

Ingredients are listed in the order they are used in the recipe.

1 pound lean ground beef
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups onion, diced
450 grams pasta, cooked and drained
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
2 cups carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch slices
2 teaspoons onion soup mix
2 tablespoons tomato paste
14 ounce can diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups water
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/3 tablespoon dried thyme)
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Add the olive oil, lean ground beef, and onion to a Dutch oven or large, heavy-bottomed pot or skillet. Over medium heat, cook the meat until no more pink is visible. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
While the ground beef is cooking, prepare the pasta – be sure to salt the water! Once the pasta is done, drain it and set it aside. Don’t rinse it off!
Add the salt, black pepper, and dark soy sauce to the ground beef and give it a good stir.
Next, add the carrots, onion soup mix, tomato paste, tomatoes, and oregano. Stir all of these things into the beef mixture.
Finally, pour in two cups of water. Stir to combine and continue to cook on medium heat until the carrots are tender. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
Add the thyme and peas. Stir into the beef mixture.
Next, add the cooked and drained pasta. Stir well to combine.
Finally, add the parsley. Stir well again and taste for seasoning.
Serve immediately.
