Take 1 to 1 and a half lb Stew Beef in bite size pieces, 
***There are 2 ways to do this,
1) As I did here Brown in a large HOT pot drizzled with oil
Then when browned add the flour mixed with water to make gravy.
2) Coat beef pieces in Flour and then Brown in a large HOT Pot drizzled with oil.
You can salt an pepper the beef while it's cooking.
Once beef is browned and the flour is added, add about 4 to 5 cups water and bring to a boil. 
Add beef bullion and Kitchen Bouquet to liking and or taste.
Add bay leaf or 2 and bump down to simmer with lid off for an hour to 45 minutes. 
Cut, peel and wash about 5 potatoes and chop into bite size pieces. Add to stew and cook till fork tender.
While potatoes are cooking, peel, wash and cut up Carrots, about 3 large. Again I like lots of veggies!
Add to stew to cook, and add in Frozen Peas, I like to almost use a whole 16 oz bag. 
At this point I will bump the Heat up to Med to get those Peas and Carrots cooked.
Right about now I cook some biscuits in the Oven and everything should be done about the same time. 
Enjoy!
