U.S. Navy Minced Beef On Toast Recipe

Beef and Tomato Skillet

Ingredients

• 1 pounds lean ground beef
• 2 onions, chopped
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 (8 ounce) cans peeled and diced tomatoes with juice
• 1 (5.5 ounce) can tomato juice
• 2 cups hot water
• teaspoon ground nutmeg
• teaspoon granulated sugar

Directions

Step 1: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onions. Stir occasionally until the beef is evenly browned. Do not drain the fat.

Step 2: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir the mixture well to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.

Step 3: Gradually stir in the flour, adding one tablespoon at a time. Continue stirring until the beef juices have been absorbed by the flour and the mixture has thickened slightly.

Step 4: Add the diced tomatoes (with their juice), tomato juice, and hot water to the skillet. Stir everything together, then reduce the heat to low.

Step 5: Allow the mixture to simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and flavors have blended well.

Step 6: Stir in the ground nutmeg and granulated sugar, and let the dish simmer for a few more minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
