Heat a large pot on medium high heat and add the beef, onion, and celery. Saute for 5 minutes or so until the beef is browned on all sides.
Add the water, bouillon cubes, parsley, black pepper, carrots, and egg noodles. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a low simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally for about 30 minutes or until the beef is tender and noodles cooked.
Serve.
Notes
Figure about 150 Baht for the beef. For 6 servings, this is about 75 cents per serving.Variation: 1. Use course ground beef (using the wagon wheel plate on your grinder) in place of cubed stew beef.Adapted from an internet recipe.
