Brown meat in hot oil. Add water, Worcestershire sauce, garlic,
onion, and seasonings. Simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to
keep from sticking. Add carrots. Continue cooking for 20 to
30 minutes or until carrots are done. (Cubed potatoes may be added at
the same time as the carrots, or leftover green beans or peas during
the last 10 minutes of cooking). Remove meat and vegetables, thicken
liquid for gravy and return meat and vegetables.
Dumplings:
Sift flour, salt, and baking powder together. Add milk and vegetable
oil to make soft dough. Drop by spoonfuls over Hobo Stew, covering
top. Cover tightly and steam without lifting lid for 12 to 15 minutes
or until dumplings are fluffy.
