Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Add onion, garlic, and carrot; cook until softened.
- Stir in flour until combined. Gradually add beef broth and Worcestershire sauce with salt, pepper, and thyme. Simmer for about 5 minutes.
