Step 1
How to make delicious pasta — pasta with beef? Prepare the following ingredients for cooking beef in tomato sauce. Beef tenderloin — boneless tenderloin (you can use ready-made tenderloin or goulash). Onions and garlic are small. Tomatoes in their own juice (with or without pulp). One stalk of celery, if you don’t really like it, you can do without it. Any type of pasta is suitable, that is, you can use any type of pasta you like

Rinse the beef under running water and dry. You can immediately take ready-made chopped meat (goulash). If the meat is a whole piece, then first you need to cut out the veins and films. Then cut into long strips along the grain.

Peel the garlic and onion and chop finely. Break the celery stalks in half, remove the tough threads inside the stalk and chop. Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan or saucepan and fry the onion, garlic and celery over medium heat for several minutes.
