Okay... several onions, maybe 2 large or three medium,

very coarsely chopped. 1 pound hamburger, probably

ground chuck or leaner. Scramble/brown the hamburger

and onions together over medium heat, keeping the meat

chopped as finely as possible, you don't want big

clumps in this, until meat is cooked, and onion

translucent. Drain off the excess grease from the

meat, trying to leave about a tablespoon or two in the

skillet. Sprinkle a scant two tablespoons of water

over the meat mixture, and stir it in well over low to

medium heat. Add approximately a cup and a half of

water, and stir to blend. (You might want to toss a

bouillion cube in at this point, won't hurt it any!)

Simmer, stirring, until the "gravy" thickens... Taste

and see about adding a healthy shake or three of

pepper and (if you omitted the bouillion cube) a dash

of salt. Won't hurt it to stay warm on the back of the

stove for a while while the potatoes finish boiling,

the flavor will go into the gravy more that way.

Howzat for indefinite? But there WAS no recipe...we

just made it! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
