under 30 minutes

ingredients

1 cup lean beef, cut in 2 inch strips
1 cup tomatoes, cut up
1 cup onion, cut up
8 ounces angel hair pasta
1 1/2 quart water
salt and pepper
garlic salt
herbs (e.g., coriander, rosemary, thyme, parsley, or oregano)
2 eggs
1 can evaporated milk
hot pepper
toast, cut in small pieces

directions

In a frying pan, cook beef in oil. Add tomato and onion, salt and pepper.

In a separate saucepan, boil thin noodles in the water with salt. Do not over-boil. A dash of garlic salt is tasty, plus other herbs of your choice.

Combine noodles and meat sauce after removing excess oil.

Use the water from the noodles to make the soup. Bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and break in eggs without stirring.

When firm enough, add evaporated milk. Add hot pepper if you like it spicy.

Serve with small piece of toast floating on top. Best when served hot.
