Chow Fun - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon Hawaiian sea salt, or to taste
2 (16 ounce) boxes fettuccine
1/4 cup butter
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 pound ground beef
1 (12 ounce) can cooked luncheon meat (such as SPAM(R)), cut into tiny pieces
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon crushed garlic
1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
2 (8 ounce) packages bean sprouts
1 (10 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained (optional)
1 bunch scallions, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
2 carrots, grated
1 bunch cilantro, chopped, divided

Preparation

Fill a large pot with water, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and sea salt; bring to a rolling boil. Stir in fettuccine and cook over medium heat until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Toss with butter and black pepper.
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, luncheon meat, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and liquid smoke; cook and stir until beef is browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer beef mixture to a plate lined with paper towels using a slotted spoon.
Stir bean sprouts, mushrooms, scallions, carrots, and half of the cilantro into the grease in the skillet. Cook and stir until bean sprouts are wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Return beef mixture to the skillet; stir until reheated, about 2 minutes.
Mix beef and bean sprout mixture into the fettucine in the bowl. Garnish with remaining cilantro.
