Bring 4 liters of water to a boil in a large pot and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Add the macaroni to the boiling water and cook according to the package instructions (approximately 8-10 minutes) or until al dente.
While the pasta is cooking, finely chop the onion.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until soft and golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Add the ground beef or pork to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until the meat is browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
Season the meat mixture with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Drain the cooked macaroni and rinse briefly with cold water to stop the cooking process.
Add the drained macaroni to the skillet with the meat mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through and let the flavors meld.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
