I used to make this for my brother when the parents were working late. He always called it "Noodley Stuff," and the name stuck. It's comfort food at its finest, and incredibly inexpensive to make. It's a bit like a casserole, a bit like a pasta dish. I love it.
1 pound ground sirloin
1 medium onion, chopped
1 14.5 oz can corn
1 14.5 oz can chopped tomatoes, Italian style
2 packages Ramen noodles, beef flavor
1 cup water
fresh basil, if desired
Brown beef in a deep pot. Drain all fat. Add chopped onions. Mix well, reduce heat to low, and cover for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. When onions are translucent, add the tomatoes, water, and entire can of corn (do not drain). Add the beef seasoning packet from one package of Ramen noodles (retain the other for future recipes). Once incorporated, add both packages of Ramen noodles, breaking them up as you mix.
Combine all ingredients and let simmer for ten minutes. Serve with roughly torn basil leaves sprinkled on top.
