Ingredients

    2 lbs. Stewing Beef
    1/4 cup canola oil
    1 Onion (or more to taste)
    2 packets of Beef Boullion
    1/2 cup flour
    Water (2-6 cups)
    2 large Carrots (or more to taste), chopped
    2 Stalks celery (or more to taste), chopped
    1 green pepper, chopped

Directions

Brown 2 lbs Stewing Beef in a large soup pot with 1/4 cup Canola Oil over medium heat.

When browned through, add two packets of boullion (or add a cube, liquid boullion or whatever you usually like to use) and add onion.

Put 1/2 cup flour in a mug. Add 1/2 cup of the water to the flour and mix in with a fork making sure there are no lumps. When it is a smooth paste, add 1/2 cup more water. Stir again with fork. Add to beef. The flour mixture will thicken upon heating so add more water, 1/2 cup at a time, letting mixture thicken again to gravy consistancy.

When you have as much gravy as you would like for your stew, add, the chopped carrot, celery and pepper.

Bring gravy to a boil then reduce heat to low, cover pot with lid and let the pot stew for at least 40 minutes. You can stew it for longer up to 4 hours, the beef will be very tender!

Serve with whole wheat or multi grain take-and-bake buns.
