Preparation

Combine corn starch, salt, pepper and paprika. Dust meat cubes lightly with corn starch mixture; reserve excess corn starch mixture. Toss meat cubes with oil in a 16-cup (4 L) oven-proof bowl or deep casserole. Bake, uncovered, in preheated 450 °F (230 °C) oven 30 min; stir once. Add carrots, potatoes, onions, celery and green beans to meat.

Combine reserved corn starch mixture with mushroom soup, onion soup mix, Worcestershire sauce and gravy browning; gradually stir in milk. Pour over meat and vegetables in pan. Reduce oven temperature to 350 °F (180 °C). Bake, covered, 1 hour.

Remove cover and stir to combine meat, vegetables and sauce. Return to oven; bake, covered, 45 min or until meat and vegetables are tender.
