Italian Steak Recipe
From LoveToKnow Recipes
Instructions
- Take 2 or 3 pounds of steak from the rump or fillet--let it be quite an inch and a half in thickness.
- Brown it in a stewpan with 2 or 3 ounces of butter, turning it frequently over a quick fire.
- When brown alike on both sides, remove the steak to a baking-pan, with a tight-fitting lid.
- Fry 2 medium-sized onions, sliced, a shallot, minced, and a bunch of parsley in the same butter.
- Throw this over the steak in the pan.
- Add 2 large wineglassfuls of port, and 2 breakfast-cups of stock, with a root of celery cut into pieces, 2 pickled gherkins, 4 or 5 cloves, a pinch of cayenne pepper, and salt to taste.
- Cover down the lid tight, that no steam may escape, and let it bake in the oven nearly an hour and a half, when put in a turnip and a carrot, whole, and close as before.
- If the roots are young they will be done in half an hour.
- Cut them into dice, and lay them over the top of the steak, which should be placed on a hot dish.
- Send to table with the gravy strained over.
