1 bn scallions sliced
3 tbl all-purpose flour
1 cup beef broth - (if commercial is used, cut back on salt)

1 sm fresh bay leaf or two dry bay leaves
Method :
Divide sliced and diced vegetables into 2 plastic bags. In one, the root
vegetables: potatoes, turnip, and carrots. Put the remaining vegetables in the
other bag. Pour 1 to 2 tablespoons of good olive oil in each bag, then divide
seasonings to each bag. Shake them all.
Place the root vegetables on a large baking sheet (with sides) or wide baking
dish. Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes before adding the remaining
vegetables. Roast another 20 minutes, or until vegetables are browned and
tender. Find the 3 garlic cloves and squeeze the garlic out of the skins;
refrigerate the roasted vegetables. This can be done the night before.
In a large skillet, heat about 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high
heat. Add the diced meat; stir until well browned. Sprinkle with scallions and
flour; stir and cook for another minute.
Transfer meat mixture to the crockpot; add bay leaf, pepper, and salt. Add beef
broth to the pan the meat was cooked in; bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes.
Scrape up browned bits from the bottom of the pan; pour hot broth over meat in
the crockpot. Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours. Add roasted vegetables;
cook an additional hour on HIGH, or until mixture is hot.
Serve with hot rolls or biscuits.
