Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound roast beef, thinly sliced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 pieces white or whole wheat bread, thick slices
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 cups mashed potatoes (optional, for serving)
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat and melt the butter.
Whisk in the flour to create a roux. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture is golden brown.
Slowly pour in the beef broth while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer and let it thicken into a gravy, about 5 minutes.
Season the gravy with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Reduce the heat to low and add the thinly sliced roast beef to the gravy. Simmer for 5 minutes to heat the beef through.
While the beef is warming in the gravy, toast or lightly heat the slices of bread, if desired.
To assemble, place a slice of bread on a plate. Pile the gravy-coated roast beef on top. Optionally, serve with a scoop of mashed potatoes on the side.
Top with the second slice of bread or leave it open-faced if preferred.
Drizzle extra gravy over the top of the sandwich and garnish with chopped parsley.
Serve hot and enjoy your comforting hot beef sandwich!
