Braised Swiss Steak (4 PTS)

Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

2 cups	125g / 4.4oz	Sliced onions - halved
2 teaspoons	10ml	Concentrated beef base*
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Pepper
2		Diced tomatoes - undrained - (14.5 oz)
1/2 cup	118ml	Water
1 1/2 lbs	681g / 24oz	Beef top round steak(1/2 inch thick) - trimmed of fat, cut in 1" serving size pieces

*One-half cup of condensed beef broth can be used in place of the

concentrated beef base plus the water in this recipe. ( I used 1 cup

Swanson's beef broth, and it worked well.)

1. In Dutch oven or 12-inch skillet, combine all ingredients except beef;

mix well. Place beef over tomato mixture. Bring to a boil. 2. Stir gently.

Reduce heat; cover and simmer 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until beef is tender.

Ingredient Info: Beef top round steak is a less tender cut of meat. Braising

(cooking in a small amount of liquid) helps to tenderize the meat.

Serving Suggestion: Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes and steamed broccoli are

delicious accompaniments for this saucy steak.
