Fideo Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, 1 tablespoon dried onion, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Transfer beef to a bowl.
• Heat canola oil in the same skillet over medium heat; cook and stir fideo noodles in the hot oil until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add ground beef and enough hot water to cover the noodles; stir in tomato sauce, 2 tablespoons dried onion, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, cumin, onion powder, beef bouillon, green bell pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the fideo, and fry until browned. Pour in half of the can of tomato sauce, and 1 cup of the water. Season with cumin, garlic salt and chili powder, and stir to blend. Bring to a boil, and cook until the liquid has almost evaporated.
• Stir in the remaining tomato sauce and water. Cover, and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, or until the fideo is tender, and the sauce has thickened.

Steps:

• Fry vermicelli in pan with oil and set aside (don't overbrown as to not make pasta tough.).
• in a pot, cook meat in some oil until brown with salt and pepper.
• add all ingredients in with meat, stir and cover for 3-5 minutes for pasta to soften.
• then cook uncovered for 15-20 minutes.
• don't overcook and don't stir or the pasta will turn to mush.

Steps:

• In large saucepan or stockpot heat the oil or butter. Add pasta and saute until golden, stirring frequently and being careful not to burn. Stir in chiles and cook for 2 minutes longer. Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, garlic, onion, water and salt in a blender. Puree until smooth. Add tomato puree and stock to browned pasta. Cook over medium-low heat until the noodles soften and the flavors meld, about 15 minutes. Serve hot with the sliced avocado and cilantro as garnish.

Steps:

• In a blender jar, combine the tomatoes, garlic, onion, water, and salt. Puree until smooth and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and lightly oil a medium baking dish. In a large heavy sauce pan heat the olive oil over medium low heat. Add the pasta and saute, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Be careful not to burn the noodles. Add the chiles and continue stirring over the heat for 2 minutes more. Add the tomato puree and the chicken broth to the pan and stir together until the liquid comes to a simmer, then transfer to the baking dish. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until all the liquid has been absorbed and the noodles are tender. Remove the foil from the pan and distribute the cheese over the top and increase the oven heat to 400 degrees. Cook for 10 minutes more, until the top is bubbling and golden. Serve with a slice or 2 of avocado and a sprinkling of cilantro.

Steps:

• In a non-stick pan, heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil. Cook diced potatoes until they start to turn golden.
• While potatoes are cooking, heat the other 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a separate pot. Mix the ground beef with the meat seasonings and cook until well done.
• Drain the excess oil and water from the ground beef, and put it back to cook some more. Remove the potatoes from the oil and toss with the ground beef.
• While the potato and beef mixture is cooking some more, brown the box of the vermicelli in the non-stick pan that has the remaining oil from cooking the potatoes.
• When the vermicelli is done, drain any excess oil (there shouldn't be much if any) and then add to the potato and beef mixture, along with the beef bouillon, water, and tomato sauce.
• Cook on high heat until it comes to a good boil, cover it and let it boil for 1-2 minutes. Turn off the heat completely and let sit for about 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
