Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef Can substitute with ground turkey or chicken.
  • 2 cups beef broth For a vegetarian option, use vegetable broth.
  • 2 pieces potatoes, diced
  • 2 pieces carrots, sliced
  • 1 piece onion, chopped
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by browning the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat. Once browned, drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until they are fragrant and softened.
  3. Pour in the beef broth, then add the diced potatoes, sliced carrots, dried thyme, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
  4. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and allow it to simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  5. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, stir in the frozen peas.
  6. Serve the stew hot, and enjoy the comforting flavors!
