Chili with beef, bell pepper and chili pepper — USA recipe

🇺🇸USAAdvanced

Soups

Chili

Chili con carne is a thick, spicy stew of beef, red beans and tomatoes seasoned with cumin, paprika and hot chili. Despite the Spanish name it comes from Texas, where it has been the official state dish since 1977, and belongs to Tex-Mex cooking rather than to Mexico. It warms and fills, which makes it food for the cold season.

Solyanka with beef, sausage and pickled cucumbers — Russia recipe

🇷🇺RussiaAdvanced

Soups

Solyanka

Solyanka is a thick Russian soup built from several kinds of cured meat, brined pickles, olives, capers, and lemon. No other soup pairs those ingredients quite like this: three or four cured meats in one pot, pickles with a splash of their brine, olives, capers, and a lemon slice dropped in at the table. The result is sour, salty, and smoky all at once, thick enough that the spoon meets resistance. It began as a tavern soup made from whatever cured meat was on hand, and that's still the honest way to make it — a lone leftover sausage end belongs in this pot. Sour cream and parsley go on top, never into the pot.

Lasagna with lasagna pasta, ground beef and ricotta — Italy recipe

🇮🇹ItalyAdvanced

Cereal and Pasta Dishes

Lasagna

Lasagna is baked layers of wide pasta sheets, meat sauce, béchamel and cheese. This version also adds a layer of ricotta mixed with egg and Parmesan, the way Italian-American kitchens often do it, so it comes out denser and richer than a plain ragù-and-béchamel lasagne. Bake it 35–40 minutes and let it rest before cutting, so the layers set into clean squares.

Pho Bo (Vietnamese Beef Noodle Soup)

Pho bo is a Vietnamese noodle soup from Hanoi built around a clear, richly spiced beef broth — bones and spices simmer for hours with charred onion and ginger, while the bowl itself is finished with rice noodles, thin beef, fresh herbs, lime, and chili. Both cooked and raw beef go into the bowl: a well-done cut simmered in the broth, and paper-thin raw slices that cook the instant boiling broth is poured over them.
