Savory Beef Filling for Crepes

Most recipes for crepes are generally the same, tweaked for personal tastes so I will leave out the crepes recipe for now. The beef sauce is a recipe that I've developed loosely from beef stroganoff, made with beef stew meat, potatoes, green onions, and any veggies you choose (I prefer carrots and/or broccoli.) The result of this recipe is a creamy, savory dinner that'll leave you wanting more. Serve sauce inside or on top of crepes.

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add beef and season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until it starts to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Toss in potato, carrots, and green onions, then pour in milk. Reduce heat to medium and bring to a simmer.

Step 2

Mix 1/2 cup water with bouillon granules. Mix remaining water with flour, whisking until well combined. Add both mixtures to the saucepan and stir to combine. Stir in wine, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, cilantro, and rosemary. Cook, stirring every couple of minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Add broccoli and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until all vegetables and beef are tender, 10 to 15 more minutes.

Step 4

Serve sauce inside or on top of crepes.
