Russian Pasta with Meat – Makaroni Po-Flotski
Po-flotsky mean “navy style”. This is a very simple dish, but it has many variations. To save time and money usually a bone with a little meat is boiled for the broth and the meat is used in the dish. The meat also can be cooked separately. Someone use raw ground beef or canned beef/pork but we love it with boiled beef.
