One-pot ground beef tomato pasta

Dice the onions, garlic and green onion.

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in the pan; cook the onions until translucent.

Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds to one minute on low to medium heat so it does not burn, until it smells toasted.

Add the ground beef, raise to medium, and break it apart so there are no clusters; brown about five minutes.

Add Italian seasoning, red chili flakes, paprika, black pepper, salt and a little chicken bouillon powder.

Add one bay leaf, grate in a little ginger, and mix.

Add the tomato sauce, rinsing the bowl out into the pot with chicken stock; mix.

Cover, turn the heat to high and bring to a rolling boil; adjust the seasoning.

Add the pasta and cover; cook about nine minutes.

Add vegetables, optional; here parsley and green onions.
