Very delicious. I end up using a little less of the beef base since it seems a little to salty and I cook the carrots in the microwave. Ingredients:
2 lbs ground chuck |
2/3 cup chopped yellow onion |
1/2 cup chopped celery |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 lbs potatoes, peeled |
4 tablespoons butter |
2 carrots, sliced |
2 ounces about 2 1/2 tbsp. beef base |
1 cup warm water |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Saute beef, onion, celery and garlic in a large pan until well done, strain off fat. 2. Boil potatoes until fork tender, drain and mash with butter. 3. Blanch carrots and add to beef mixture. 4. Make a gravy in a small sauce pan with beef base and water, whisk in enough flour to thicken, about 2 tablespoons. 5. When gravy comes to a boil, add to beef carrot mixture, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. 6. Spoon mixture into a 2 quart casserole dish. Spoon potatoes on top. Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Top with cheese and let set until cheese melts about 5 minutes. |
