English Meat Pie:
Ingredients:
– 1-2 pounds of ground beef or lamb
– 1 onion, chopped
– 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced

Instructions:
1. In a large skillet, brown the ground meat over medium heat. Remove the excess fat and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, sauté the onions and garlic until they are soft and translucent.
3. Add the carrots and celery to the skillet and cook until they begin to soften.
4. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetable mixture and cook for a couple of minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
