Default No trolls but heh, a recipe

Some folks might recognize this. Mince and Tatties. It's a Scottish
peasant dish. Grandma Hannah Smith Douglas Brown used to make it and it
will be dinner tonight.

1 lb. ground beef
1 c. water
1 Tbs. Worcestershire sauce
mashed potatoes

Brown 1 lb. ground beef (mince); drain but reserve 1 Tbs. of the grease/fat.
Stir in water and Worcestershire sauce. Cover and simmer about 30 minutes.
Serve over mashed potatoes with some green peas or beans on the side.

OB Cats: Persia thought since we were awake Peaches should be, too. So she
pawed at the towel that I use to cover Peaches' cage and meowed at me!

It is early in the morning, and you already have plans for dinner. Talk
about organized.

Sounds like a perfect 'comfort food' type of dish.
I love the sound of it.

LOL you know there will be more; you drain it off and save 1 Tbs. or so to
cook with the "gravy".

Would this be an unusual thing to cook in the USA? I live on this sort of
thing all the time. You can do all sort of things with mince. Does this
make me a peasant?
I probably am, actually. I was picking up sticks in my little wood today
for kindling for my fire. That's a bit peasant-like, I suppose. I choose to
use a sustainable source for my heat. No gas central heating here.
