Feel free to add your favorite seasonings such as Lawry's. This isn't the exact recipe but way back when I was a kid my mother who made a lovely tuna casserole [right.. 3 bottles of ketchup spaghetti queen] and my Grandfather had one heck of a fight over the Tuna Casserole or the Hamburger Gravy. Grandfather ate his Hamburger Gravy over saltines that night and Mom MADE me eat the tuna. Didn't help her mood I cried and wanted the Gravy too. Ingredients:
2 lbs ground beef |
1 cup finely diced onion |
1 cup finely diced green bell pepper |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
fresh ground black pepper |
4 cups water |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
1 cup milk |
Directions:
1. Dissolve and mix together: the flour and the milk.
2. Brown and crumbly ground beef, stirring frequently; drain well.
3. Add onions and green bell peppers and cook until softened about 5 to 10 minutes. Add salt, water and a mixture of flour and milk. Cook, stirring until thick. Adjust seasonings to your taste.
4. Serve over hot, cooked mashed potatoes or cooked noodles or cooked rice. Or over saltines or toast.
