Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 large potatoes peeled and cubed
- ½ cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large pot, place the peeled and cubed potatoes, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce heat and simmer until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes, then drain and return to pot.
- Add butter and milk to the drained potatoes and mash until smooth and creamy, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat, then sauté onion and garlic until soft.
- Add ground beef to the skillet, cooking until fully browned and crumbled, about 5-7 minutes, draining excess fat if necessary.
- Sprinkle flour over the beef mixture, stir to combine, and cook for 1 minute.
- Gradually pour in beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps, then mix in Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for 5-10 minutes until thickened to desired consistency.
- Serve mashed potatoes on plates, ladling the beef and gravy mixture generously over them.
- Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
For extra richness, consider using cream in the mashed potatoes.
