Fried noodles with a Mediterranean touch

In the morning, combine the cheese (I like Gouda) with olive oil, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon of the sun-dried tomato juice, and about half a jar of tomatoes in a bowl and mix everything thoroughly. Chop the tomatoes into smaller pieces beforehand. 2-3 hours before eating, cut the inner fillet into thumb-width pieces. Marinate the meat with 1 tablespoon of the tomato juice and 1 clove of finely diced garlic for 2-3 hours. Don’t forget the pepper. Cook the pasta in salted water according to the package instructions until just al dente. At the same time, briefly fry the diced onion and the second clove of garlic in a little olive oil, then add the meat. When the meat has turned white on all sides, add 2 small ladles of the pasta water. Mix everything with the pasta and let it reduce. The meat should now be cooked through and the pasta should be al dente. Remove everything from the heat and slowly stir in the cheese until it has melted. Garnish with the parsley and, if desired, a few more of the finely chopped tomatoes for topping. If you like, you can vary the recipe by adding olives or replacing the tomatoes.
