Heat a large pot over medium heat and add the ground beef. Season with salt and pepper and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the cooked ground beef from the pot and set aside.

Toast the Fideo:
In the same pot, add the vegetable oil and the fideo noodles. Toast the fideo, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to burn the noodles. Remove the toasted fideo and set aside.

Sauté the Vegetables:
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped tomato and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the tomato begins to break down.

Simmer the Soup:
Add the diced potatoes, cumin, oregano, beef broth, and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
