This is my take on the Army's SOS. Have made a few changes and most importantly, it doesn't serve thousands of people.
I use ground beef or ground chuck, but you can always use ground turkey, ground chicken or sausage.
It's made with my medium white sauce recipe.
1-1/2 lbs. ground meat
2 tbsps. butter
1 cp. chopped onion
1/4 cp. flour or 1/8 cp. corn starch
2 tbsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. Worcestershire Sauce
1 cp. beef stock
salt & pepper to taste
1 cp. milk
1. Brown meat and drain well.
2. Return to pan and add butter.
3. Add onions.
4. Add flour stir until well blended and cook for 2-3 mins. Slowly add stock; mix well, stirring constantly.
5. Add garlic powder and Worcestershire Sauce.
6. Slowly add the milk and stir until thick and heated through.
COOKS NOTES:
If using corn starch, mix it with the stock - I'm not fond of making a roué with flour. Seems like you can still taste it, even after cooking it for a few mins. This would be in Step #4.
I don't use chopped onions, just onion powder.
Add any seasonings you want....I even use a shake of paprika.
Can be served on biscuits, toast or rice. I sometimes add mushrooms and cheese and serve it over rice for a dinner meal.
Thanks for the recipe Sheila... I'll copy this down for sure! My dad used to use thinly sliced beef lunchmeat - making me hungry!
ReplyDeleteEvery now and then, you can find the actual "chipped" beef, that comes in a small glass jar. Very expensive.
