Directions

1. In a large pot on stove top, add a tiny bit of oil, the cubed beef and the chopped onion to the pot. Brown the beef on medium heat until it starts sticking, then add water. Continue cooking until the water boils down, add more water and let it boil down again. This will soften the meat. You don’t need to stir it constantly, just don’t let the water run out!

This should make the gravy too, if you do not make doughboys then add some flour water mix to the pot and stir to make a gravy.
