Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the white and light-green parts of the scallions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the ground beef, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, breaking up the beef into small pieces, until no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Stir in the ketchup, mustard and tomato paste. Add the milk, macaroni, 2 cups water, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the pasta has absorbed most of the liquid and is softened, 13 to 15 minutes.
- Uncover (any remaining liquid will thicken as the dish sits), add the cheese and stir until melted. Garnish with the parsley and remaining scallion greens.
