Beef
- 1 pound beef stew meat Cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil For browning the beef
- 1 medium onion Chopped
- 2 cloves garlic Minced
- 4 cups beef broth The heart of the dish
- 2 cups egg noodles Soak up the flavors
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce Enhances umami flavor
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme Adds earthiness
- salt and pepper To taste

Prepare the ingredients by cutting the beef into bite-sized pieces, chopping the onion, and mincing the garlic.
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef on all sides for about 5-7 minutes, then remove and set aside.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Return the beef to the pot, add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 60 minutes.
Add the egg noodles and frozen peas and carrots to the pot. Stir well and simmer for an additional 10-12 minutes until the noodles are cooked.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Stir in fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.
