Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    1 1/2 lb inch-thick round steak
    1/4 cup olive oil
    1/2 clove garlic
    3 egg-size onions, sliced
    Pinch of thyme or basil
    1/3 cup tomato sauce or puree
    1/2 tsp sugar
    1 tsp salt
    Dash of black pepper
    1 1/2 cups cold water or beef bouillon
    2 1/2 to 3 medium size green peppers

Directions

Cut meat into inch cubes on cutting board. Heat oil in 10-inch heavy skillet, add garlic and meat. Brown slowly, about 20 mins, stirring often. Add onion last few minutes of browning.

Now add next 5 ingredients and 1/2 cup of the water ( or beef bouillon ). Cover and simmer until meat is tender from 50 - 60 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add remaining water (or beef bouillon ) in 2 or 3 portions as liquid evaporates. Remove stems, seeds, and cores from the peppers and cut into inch squares; add to meat, cover and cook 15 mins longer.

When done, there should be about 3/4 cup rich gravy to serve with the meat.

Serve hot with potatoes, rice, or noodles. 4 - 5 servings
