It&#8217;s essentially a spin on the Scottish dish, mince &amp; tatties and I just cannot get over how good the combination of cloves and worcestershire is with beef or bison. Try this once and if doesn&#8217;t become your definitive comfort-food dish, I&#8217;ll be very surprised. Oh, and the &#8220;serves 4&#8221; may not be reality once you taste it either.<\/p>\n<p>In keeping with the grain-free theme of the site, I&#8217;ve used arrowroot powder as the thickener. If you haven&#8217;t got any, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.robinhood.ca\/Products\/Easy-Blend-Shaker\" target=\"_blank\">Easy Blend flour<\/a> is an excellent substitute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time: 40 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Serves: 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n<address>6 carrots \u2013 peeled and cut into 1\u201d pieces<\/address>\n<address>1 pound ground bison<\/address>\n<address>1 onion \u2013 diced<\/address>\n<address>1 \u00bd teaspoons kosher salt<\/address>\n<address>\u00bc teaspoon fresh ground black pepper<\/address>\n<address>1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce<\/address>\n<address>1 pinch ground cloves<\/address>\n<address>1 \u00bd cups beef or chicken stock<\/address>\n<address>2 tablespoons arrowroot powder<\/address>\n<address>1 cup frozen peas<\/address>\n<address>\u00a0<\/address>\n<p><strong>Preparation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Place a steamer basket in a suitable pot with a half-inch of water on high heat.

Cook the bison, crumbling apart any clumps until it\u2019s browned.<\/p>\n<p>Stir in the onion and cook, stirring occasionally for five minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Add the salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce and cloves, cooking for one more minute.<\/p>\n<p>Pour in the stock and bring the heat to high.
