Grandma's Dutch Hache

This traditional Dutch recipe makes use of left over steak or roast. She made it for us every time we came to visit from California because she knew we loved it. I never cooked it while she was alive. I always just let her do it. I regret that now.

10 potatoes (approx)
2 onions
cold cooked steak or roast
1 bay leaf

2 T vinegar
2 T sugar
pinch nutmeg (nutmeg goes in just about everything Dutch)
2 T cornstarch

Melt butter and saute the onions till clear
Add 1/4 C water. Put lid on and simmer 10 min.
Take lid off and brown a little.

Add 1/14 c water
Add vinegar and thicken with 1-2 T cornstarch to consistency of thick soup.
Season with sugar, nutmeg, salt and pepper
Use vinegar last or it won't thicken!
