Makarony po-flotski
Makarony po-flotski (Russian: макароны по-флотски, literally navy-style pasta) is a Russian dish made of cooked pasta (typically macaroni, penne or fusilli) mixed with stuffing made of stewed ground meat (usually beef or pork), fried onions and seasoned with salt and black pepper.[1][2] Originally served in maritime forces, the dish became very popular in Russia because of simplicity, low costs and quickness of its preparation. Makarony po-flotski became highly popular after the World War II during times of poverty in Soviet Union.

Preparation
The pasta is cooked in salted boiling water. The onions are well chopped, while meat is minced. After pouring some oil on the pan the chopped onions are fried and after they get a golden color the meat is added to them to get fried. The ground meat can be replaced by canned meat (tushonka). The stuffing is seasoned with salt and pepper. When the meat is fried and the pasta is cooked they are mixed together. The dish is usually served without any additions, but can be eaten with pickles.
