I’ve tried this dish multiple times, but it’s never THIS good. The best!
This classic comfort food dish is a simple yet satisfying meal. The rich gravy, made with beef broth and seasoned with Worcestershire sauce, perfectly complements the creamy mashed potatoes.

Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Ground beef | 1 pound |
| Onion, finely chopped | 1 small |
| Garlic, minced | 2 cloves |
| All-purpose flour | 1/4 cup |
| Beef broth | 2 cups |
| Worcestershire sauce | 1 tablespoon |
| Salt and pepper | To taste |
| Mashed potatoes | 4 cups (homemade or prepared) |
| Parsley, chopped fresh (optional) | 2 tablespoons |
Instructions:
- Brown the beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Sauté onions and garlic: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking until the onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Make the roux: Sprinkle the flour over the beef mixture and stir well, cooking for another minute to get rid of the raw flour taste.
- Add broth and simmer: Gradually stir in the beef broth, making sure to mix well to prevent lumps. Add the Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
- Prepare mashed potatoes: While the gravy is simmering, prepare your mashed potatoes if you haven’t already.
- Assemble and serve: To serve, spoon a generous portion of the beef and gravy mixture over a bed of mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
