Recipe: Curried Beef Stew

This is a new recipe I sort of invented yesterday. It's a little spicy, so you can leave out the red pepper flakes or add as much or as little to make it as spicy as you want. And you can add more veggies if you want. I added chicken kielbasa to help up the protein count. hope you like it!

Ingredients:

4 red potatoes (diced)
1 large onion (sliced into rings)
2 tomatoes (diced)
1 container sliced mushrooms
1 lb lean stew meat
1 zucchini (sliced)
1 chicken kielbasa
1 tbs curry powder
1 cup beef broth
flour

Placed all the veggies and meat in a crock pot or casserole dish (if you are cooking in the oven).

melt 3 tbs butter in a medium saucepan. Add curry powder. Add enough flour to get a nice paste and stir continuously for a about a minute. Add beef broth and simmer for a few minutes. Pour into casserole dish or crock pot and add enough water to come just under the top layer of ingredients. Add as much red pepper flakes as you want. I used a pinch. Cook until veggies are tender and meat is cooked through. (at 350 degrees, probably about an hour or two.) I let mine sit in the crock pot for about 5 hours.
