1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, sliced
4 TBS cream flour*
2 C browning stock (beef broth)
Fresh parsley & thyme, chopped

Stir in flour and cook until slightly browned; add stock and herbs. Bring mixture to a boil; cook for about five minutes to reduce liquid. Add cooked beef and bring back to a boil. Spoon mixture into baking dish; cover with mashed potatoes. Bake at 350-degrees F for about thirty minutes. Cut into squares and serve.
