Brown ground beef draining off excess fat if any. Put into stew like pot or crook-pot. Add all dried seasonings, packages beef broth, dried onion and onion soup mix and mix well. Add in diced carrot and onion. Add 2 1/2 to 3 cups of water, stir all ingredients together. Simmer until carrots and onions are tender.
Peel and dice potatoes and cook until tender, drain. Add butter, milk, cream cheese, salt and pepper and whip up until creamy.
Cook peas or sweet corn, drain, season and add a little butter.
Mix Bisto Gravy Mix and flour together with a little water to form a smooth paste. Turn up ground beef and add in a teaspoonful at a time of the gravy/flour paste until quite a thick consistency.
Put a pile of mashed potatoes in the middle of the plate. Make a well in the middle. Ladle the ground beef stew into the well. Add veggies.
Notes
This can all be mashed together and is very popular with kids.
Leftovers can always be poured over bread for a hot ground beef sandwich.
