Step by Step Instructions

• Step 1

  

  Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, add 500ml of water with one tablespoon of salt. Once the water is boiling, add the spaghetti, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  

• Step 2

  

  Add Olive Oil to the Pasta: When the pasta is nearly done, add a splash of olive oil to the pot to prevent sticking and give the dish a light flavor.
  

• Step 3

  

  Prepare the Pan for the Meat: In a heated skillet, add a drizzle of olive oil and let it warm up slightly. This will give the meat a special flavor and allow it to fry evenly.
  

• Step 4

  

  Fry the Meat: Place the meat in the skillet and allow it to brown, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  

• Step 5

  

  Season the Meat: Once the meat is lightly browned, season it with salt, paprika, and pepper to taste. Stir well so each piece is evenly seasoned.
  

• Step 6

  

  Prepare the Soy Sauce Mixture: In a small cup, mix five tablespoons of soy sauce with a tablespoon of cornstarch. Stir until smooth, creating a sauce that will thicken when added to the mixture.
  

• Step 7

  

  Sauté the Vegetables: In another skillet, heat a dash of olive oil and add the yellow, green, and red bell peppers, along with the tomato, onion, and carrot, all cut into strips. Sauté until slightly softened, preserving their color and crunch.
  

• Step 8

  

  Add Meat to the Vegetables: Once the vegetables are lightly cooked, add the fried meat and mix thoroughly to combine flavors.
  

• Step 9

  

  Incorporate the Sauce: Pour the soy sauce and cornstarch mixture over the meat and vegetables. Stir until the sauce thickens and coats everything with a creamy texture.
  

• Step 10

  

  Add the Cooked Pasta: Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the skillet with the meat and vegetables. This step allows the pasta to soak up all the sauce flavors.
  

• Step 11

  

  Mix Well: Use a spatula to blend everything together, ensuring each strand of pasta is coated with the sauce and seasoning.
  

• Step 12

  

  Garnish with Fresh Herbs: To finish, add fresh green herbs to taste, such as parsley or chives, for a hint of freshness and fragrance.
