Mexican Fideo Dish
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 (8 ounce) package fideo pasta
  • 1 1/2 cups water, divided
  • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce, divided
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
Instructions
1
Collect all necessary components before commencing the recipe.
2
Heat a generous amount of oil in a saucepan over a moderately high heat setting. Introduce the fideo into the saucepan and engage in continuous stirring until it reaches a golden brown hue and is toasted to perfection.
3
Add 1 cup of water and half of the remaining tomato sauce to the fideo mixture. Incorporate a pinch of chili powder, cumin, and garlic salt into the blend to enhance its flavor. Stir everything together seamlessly.
4
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil and continue cooking until the liquid has almost completely evaporated, leaving behind a richly flavored sauce.
5
Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup of water and the remaining half of the tomato sauce. Cover the saucepan and cook over a lower heat setting until the fideo is tender and the sauce has thickened to your liking, taking approximately 10 minutes.
