Introduction

Comfort food. This is a modified recipe that I got out of a Tolkein book. It's Hobbit food, so you know it's good. ;-) High in zinc, potassium, and b-vitamins! Comfort food.

Ingredients

    1 Large Onion
    1 Large Carrot
    1 Tbs. Olive Oil
    1 lb beef cubes
    1 Tbs. Flour
    2 large potatoes
    1/2 C. Beef Broth
    2 Tbs. Milk (or more)
    2 Tbs. Butter
    Dash Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Directions

Saute one large onion and one large carrot in olive oil. When onions are limp, add 1 lb. beef cubes and 1 Tb flour. Saute. Add 1/2 C. beef stock, salt and pepper and simmer for 20 mins. I also added some Worcestershire sauce. While this simmers, boil 1 lb. potatoes, cubed. Mash when soft and add some milk and butter to make a mash. Place the meat in a pie dish, top with potatoes, baked on 375 for 30 mins. Place under broiler for 5 mins to brown on top.
