Bonnies Beef Gravy And Dumpling Side Dish Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Directions Coat the short ribs in flour and fry on all sides in oil over medium heat. Transfer to a large slow cooker. Mix all the ingredients and pour over the short ribs. Cook on low setting for 5 to 6 hours until fork tender.
• 2. Make beef gravy and dumplings 1/2 hour before meat is done. In a small bowl, add flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, and parsley. Mix dry ingredients well, then add butter. Mash the butter into the flour with a fork, then using your fingers distribute it evenly throughout the flour, then add milk. Stir mixture just until wet. The goal is to make a sticky, moist, spoonable dough.
• 3. Make sure the beef broth is boiling. Dip your spoon in the hot broth, and then drop spoonfuls of the dough into the simmering broth until the bowl is empty. Turn the heat up and bring it to a boil and then immediately turn the heat to simmer (so it won't tear your dumplings) Put the lid on tight. Cook 20 minutes. NO PEEKING, PLEASE! You will lose your steam, because the heat and steam is what cooks your dumplings. Turn off the heat, set aside. Let the pan rest on the burner for about five minutes before serving. The gravy thickens as it rests.
• 4. Spoon the gravy over servings of beef short ribs and serve with the dumplings as a side dish with a green vegetable. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Using a large mixing bowl, add 1/4 cup of milk to it and place a slice of bread in it, soak it up, then squeeze the milk out. Discard any remaining milk. Add the egg and beat slightly with a fork. Add the ground beef and the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
• Shape the mixture with your hands into walnut sized meat balls. (wet your hands if you need to) Heat some Canola oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the meatballs and brown them all over. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Cover loosely with foil to keep them warm. Brown the meatballs in batches, don't crowd them in the pan. They should be a nice golden brown. After you have fried all the meatballs, measure out 2 tablespoons of grease, discard the rest, leaving the brown bits in the pan. Add the 2 tablespoons of grease back to the pan and make the gravy. Over medium heat, whisk the flour into the grease, let it cook one minute, then add the beef broth, milk, lemon zest, thyme, creamed horseradish and kitchen bouquet. Cook the gravy until it thickens. It will be sort of white. Add more salt if needed.
• Place the meatballs into a shallow casserole dish. Pour the gravy over the top of the meatballs, Bake uncovered for 25 minutes in a 350 degree, pre-heated oven until bubbling and the gravy turns brown. Serve hot and spooned over mashed potatoes, buttered noodles or steamed white rice. This is delicious! Enjoy!

Steps:

• 1. Trim the fat from the chuck roast, and pat it dry. Add salt and pepper to your taste. Heat the oil in a dutch oven over medium high heat and add the roast. (I use cast iron) Get a good sear on both sides of the meat.
• 2. While the meat is searing, combine the following ingredients in a medium size mixing bowl: 2 cans cream of chicken soup, 2 cans of sliced and drained mushrooms. 1 mushroom can of Marsala wine, 1 heaping teaspoon chopped garlic and black cracked pepper. Mix well. Set aside.
• 3. Cooks Tip: I used a liner for easy clean up. It is great for storing the leftovers. You just lift it out and place it in a container. Refrigerate. The next day, you put it back in the slow cooker to reheat it.
• 4. Place the seared meat in the bottom of the slow cooker. Add the potatoes. Pour the bowl mixture over the top of the roast. Put on the lid and don't look at it again until dinner time. Cook 2 hours on high, and then 4 to 6 hours on low until it is as tender as you like it. The gravy will turn a lovely golden brown, and there is no need to thicken it.
• 5. Here is a couple of shots of how it looks! Enjoy!
• 6. Leftovers are great the next day!

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering, and place the onion and beef into the hot oil. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the steak seasoning, stir the meat and onions well, and sprinkle with 1 more teaspoon of seasoning. Add the celery, and cook and stir until the meat is browned, about 10 minutes.
• Pour in 2 cups of water to just cover the meat, onion, and celery, bring to a boil, and stir and scrape the browned bits of flavor from the bottom of the pan. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until the beef is very tender, about 2 hours. Remove the meat and celery pieces from the pan, set the meat aside, and discard the celery.
• In a bowl, whisk together the gravy mix with 4 cups of water. Add the mixture to the juices in the pot, bring to a boil, and stir the meat back into the gravy mixture. Stir in the turnip and carrots, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in the potatoes, cover, and simmer an additional 20 minutes.
• To make dumplings, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Cut the shortening into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture looks crumbly. Pour in the milk, and lightly stir the mixture just until it combines to form a dough.
• Remove 2 cups of gravy from the pot, and reserve. Drop the dumplings by heaping tablespoon onto the meat and vegetables in the pot, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Do not peek until the time is up. Pour the reserved gravy back over the dumplings, stir lightly, and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan or deep sauté pan. Tip in the onions, bay leaves and thyme sprigs, and fry over a medium heat for about 8 mins, stirring often, until the onions are turning golden. Raise the heat, add the steak and stir-fry briefly until it starts to lose its raw, red colour. Pour in the wine, stir to deglaze the brown sticky bits from the bottom of the pan, and let it bubble briefly. Lower the heat, sprinkle in the flour and mustard powder, and stir for 1 min. The meat should now be coated in a thick, rich sauce.
• Mix in the tomatoes, stirring to break them down. Stir in the stock and bring to the boil. Tip in the carrots, squash and mushrooms, lower the heat, cover with a lid and leave to simmer gently for 1 hr 40 mins, stirring occasionally. Uncover and cook for a further 20 mins, still on a gentle simmer, until the meat is very tender. Season with pepper.
• When the stew is nearly cooked, heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Put a 2.25-litre casserole dish in to heat it up. Meanwhile, make the dumplings. Put the flour, mustard powder, some pepper and a pinch of salt in a bowl, then stir in the spring onions and parsley. Mix the oil and buttermilk together and gently stir into the flour. Add a drop or two of cold water, if needed, to pick up any dry bits on the bottom of the bowl, and stir to make a soft and slightly sticky dough. Be as light-handed as you can, as overmixing or overhandling will toughen the dumplings. Cut the dough into 8 pieces and very lightly shape each into a small, rough ball.
• Carefully transfer the stew to the hot casserole dish and remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Sit the dumplings on top and press them down into the gravy to very slightly submerge. Put the dish on a baking sheet and cook for about 20 mins until the dumplings have risen and are golden on top. Serve with a light scattering of thyme leaves.

Steps:

• 1. PREPARE THE MEAT THE NIGHT BEFORE: Combine the ground beef, bread, onion, mince garlic, sea salt and fresh cracked pepper in a large bowl. Add the milk. Mix well. Form into oval shaped patties, not too thick or thin. Wrap the patties individually and tightly in saran wrap and refrigerate over night. (Don't skip this step!)
• 2. MAKING THE SALISBURY STEAKS: In a small skillet, prepare the 2 packets of gravy per instructions. Add the one tablespoon of Lipton Mushroom Onion mix. (or 1/2 tablespoon if you use one packet) Once it's thickened, add the mushrooms and simmer. Sprinkle the prepared Salsibury Steak patties with the McCormick Steak Seasoning. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Once it's hot, add the salisbury steak patties and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until nice and brown, and to your desired degree of doneness. Use oil very sparingly if you have to.
• 3. SERVING THE SALISBURY STEAKS: You can serve the salsibury steaks two ways. You can add the gravy right into the pan and simmer it with the Salsibury Steaks for a few minutes. The gravy should be thickened. (We prefer it like that because the gravy picks up the juices of the meat) Or you can place the cooked steak patties on a serving dish and cover with the mushroom gravy. Garnish with 1 teaspoon chopped green onion. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Toss the beef tips with the flour, salt and pepper in a large Ziploc bag to coat well. Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Brown the beef in the pan. Once browned, reserve beef on a plate and cook the onions until soft. Return the beef to the pan, add the broth, white wine and basil to the pot. Turn down to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 2 hours (can cook for longer if necessary, just keep on low heat). Toward end of cooking time preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir the lima beans into the stew. In a measuring cup mix the half-and-half with the cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved. Stir it into the stew. Turn heat up to medium-high and heat to almost boiling stirring regularly. Transfer stew to large 9 by 13 glass pan (I actually use a little larger corning ware pan) Open biscuits can and place individual biscuits on top of the stew. Cook in 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes until biscuits are golden brown.

Steps:

• Cut ribs into 1-in. pieces. In a Dutch oven over medium heat, brown beef in oil on all sides. Add onion and garlic; cook until onion is tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in tomatoes, 1/2 cup broth, soy sauce and seasonings; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until meat is tender. , Combine cornstarch and remaining broth until smooth; stir into beef mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. , For dumplings, combine the water, cornmeal and salt in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened; remove from the heat. Stir a small amount into egg; return all to pan, stirring constantly. Combine flour, baking powder and pepper; stir into cornmeal mixture. Stir in corn. , Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls into simmering stew. Cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes (do not lift lid) or until a toothpick inserted in a dumpling comes out clean.
