Stew

Stew brings me back to childhood. I found out how to make the dumplings that my mom always made and I love them.





Stew
6 med potatoes, scrubbed and diced
1 lb stew meat
garlic salt
1/2 to 1 c. frozen mixed veggies
1/2 c. milk
1/4 c. flour
salt and pepper to taste

Put potatoes in large pot and add enough water to cover potatoes- bring to boil and cook until fork tender.
In skillet fry stew meat with garlic salt until no blood is showing. Add to potatoes. Add veggies and bring back to boil. Mix milk and flour and stir into potato water. Turn down to a simmer. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Dumplings
2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. salt
1 egg
1/4-1/2 c. milk

Mix together- adding enough milk to make a soft dough (similar to muffin batter)
Drop by spoonfuls onto stew. Put lid on and and let simmer for approximately 20 minutes.
