NEW ENGLAND CHOP SUEY

Steps:

• Add hot water to a large pan. I like to add to my pasta water heavy salt, dried oregano and a splash of EVOO. Bring to a boil and add elbows, cook to al dente 9 minutes. Drain pasta and return to pan, set aside.
• While pasta is cooking chop up a large cup of onions, a cup of mushrooms and garlic to preference.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add the onions and half a tbs of EVOO. Soften onions, then add beef. When beef is nearly browned add mushrooms then garlic.
• Simmer for 2 minutes (enough to mix semi evenly) then strain off excess fat. Add meat mixture to the pan with your pasta and return to low heat.
• Add the can of crushed tomatoes and 2 cans of condensed soup. Add one soup cans worth of water and keep on low heat 10-15 minutes simmering gently but not sticking. Spice. I salt and pepper generously and add about 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper. I like to add a teaspoon of sugar to neutralize the acidity of tomatoes.
• Serve on a cold day.
