To cook on the stove:

Mix the flour, salt and pepper together. Coat meat
with flour mixture. In a large fry pan, wok, or Dutch
Oven, brown the meat in a little oil (cooking a little
meat at a time until all is browned). Place meat in a
large pot and add about 3 cups beef broth,
Worcestershire, garlic, bay leaf, paprika, carrots,
onions and celery. Stir to mix. Cook over medium
heat until it comes to a slow boil, reduce to low and
continue cooking (4 hours or so) until the liquid is
reduced and meat is tender, stirring frequently. Add
potatoes and continue cooking about another 30 minutes
or until potatoes are tender. Do not use Kitchen
Bouquet. If necessary, add a little flour mixed with
water to thicken.
