Junkie Stew (or Nistipata) is a finnish dish, usually consumed by low-wage families, students, NEETs and... junkies. Every person has their own way of making this food, but they all share two common ingredients: ground beef (or pork, usually mixture of the two) and macaroni pasta and is made by frying the beef on a pan and boiling the pasta, then mixing them together. Other common ingredients include ketchup, onion, garlic, heavy cream, cream cheese and different condiments, but it can be made with almost anything you find from your fridge or pantry as long as it has meat and pasta in some form.
