comfort essentials: creamy/dreamy round steak

How To Make comfort essentials: creamy/dreamy round steak

• 
  Step 1
  PREP/PREPARE
• 
  Step 2
  What will you need? This is a one-pot meal, so you will need a good pot with a lid. A Dutch oven would be ideal.
• 
  Step 3
  What is it? This is real comfort food made with simple ingredients and tastes awesome. You can choose another cut of beef, if you like, but you may need to adjust the cooking time to make it fork tender.
• 
  Step 4
  What to serve with it? This recipe was born to be served over a steaming plate of mash taters, but that is just me. A small side salad, and some crusty bread would also be a good thing. As for wine... A nice crisp chardonnay :-) Some would prefer a red with beef, like a cabernet sauvignon, , but I am not much into reds.
• 
  Step 5
  How to store it? This recipe will survive in the fridge, properly covered for 5 – 7 days. However, it can be frozen, in which case it will last for 3 – 4 months. If vacuum sealed and frozen, it will last for 12 – 14 months.

  Step 6
  The Gravy This is an important part of the recipe, so whether you use store bought or homemade, choose something that you love. Here is what I used: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/sauce-spread-other-sauce-spread/french-sauce-supreme.html

  Reduce the heat to medium low, then stir the onions until they soften, and the mushrooms release their liquid and begin to brown, about 12 – 15 minutes.

  Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom/onion mixture, and add the oregano, white pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne.

  Step 13
  Stir for about 2 minutes.
