1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up as it browns. Drain excess grease if needed.

2. Add chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.

3. Sprinkle in flour and stir to coat the beef. Cook for 1 minute.

4. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring, then add Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes until the gravy thickens.

5. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and melted butter to make the dumpling batter. Stir just until combined.

6. Drop spoonfuls of dumpling batter over the simmering beef. Cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12–15 minutes until dumplings are puffed and cooked through.

7. Serve hot, ensuring each portion has plenty of beef and a dumpling or two.
