### How to Make It

1. **Cook the beef:** In a large skillet, heat butter or oil over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess fat if needed.
2. **Add onion and garlic:** Stir in the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant.
3. **Make the gravy:** Sprinkle the flour over the beef mixture and stir well to coat. Cook for 1–2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
4. **Add broth:** Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 5–7 minutes.
5. **Season:** Add salt, pepper, and Worcestershire or soy sauce if using. Adjust to taste.
6. **Serve:** Spoon the beef and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, noodles, or your favorite side. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
