Directions
Brown the beef with the onions in a large pot.
Once the meat is brown add 3 cups of water and bay leaves.
Heat over medium heat while you peel the potatoes and carrrots.
Add potatoes and carrots to the stew pot.
Cover with water.
Bring to a boil.
Cook until potatoes are tender.
Mix up a flour and water mixture to thicken the stew.
Add it right to the pot.
No need to remove the meat/veggies.
Stir well to make sure you don't get lumps.
Add pepper/salt/whatever you like for spices.
I sometimes add garlic when browning the meat.
Oregano is a nice touch as well.
Once the stew is thickened you can serve it.
