Swiss Steak

---

I have no idea what is Swiss about this steak recipe, but it’s very easy to do and was once very popular. It probably could be again.

To serve four people you need:

1kg of rump, round or chuck steak in four pieces
4tbs flour
4tbs olive oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
400g can (approximately) of crushed tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Season the steak with salt and pepper and coat in the flour. Heat the oil in a fire-proof casserole dish and sear the steaks on both sides.

Remove the steak and add the onions. Cook until soft, then replace the meat, add the tomatoes and cook covered over a low heat for about two hours, when the meat will be tender.
