Ingredients
Potatoes skin still on, 5-6 large ones Carrots 3 large2 cups Turnips1 Large onion about 1 cup cut up1 cup celery diced900ml beef bouillon (no salt would be better but I didn't have that on hand today)4 cups waterpepper to tasteno salt seasoning to taste1 lb stewing beef (the top sirloin was the closest match for calories so I picked that)
Directions
Cook up beef in fry pan with onion and celery, I add a little water and pepper to this. Once beef is cooked I scoup out the beef, onions and celery and add to stock pot. I make rue with flour and COLD water and add to the beef juices left in frying pan, this helps thicken my stew.
In stock pot I pour entire box (900ml) of broth , 4 cups of water and remaining ingredients. Add a little more water if you like a thinner stew or a little less if you like thicker.
Add the rue once thickened, into the stockpot with all the other ingredients. Make sure the stockpot broth and water are really hot!
Mix and let cook for at least an hour but it is much better longer.
When it has cooked at least an hour I like to mash a few of the potatoes to thicken the stew even more.
