Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 Pounds Round steak
2 Teaspoons Salt
1/2 Teaspoon Ground black pepper
1 Teaspoon Ground red pepper
1 Teaspoon Ground white pepper
All-purpose flour (dredging)
1/2 Cup Vegetable oil
3 Each Medium onions, chopped
2 Each Bell peppers, chopped
1 Each Celery rib, chopped
1 Cup Beef stock

Season the roast with one half of the salt and peppers. Dust with flour on
all sides. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or other large heavy pot over
medium-high heat, add the steak, and brown well on all sides. Remove the
meat and pour off all but 1 teaspoon of the oil. Add half the onions, bell
peppers, celery, and the other half of the seasonings, and the stock or
water. Stir well and reduce the heat to the lowest possible point. Return
the roast to the pot and cover with the remaining vegetables. Cover and let
cook until the meat is very tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Serve the
meat in slices, with rice alongside and the gravy over all. When you try
this recipe with other kinds of meat, be sure to adjust the cooking times
accordingly--let tenderness be your guide. For extra flavorful roasts, try
larding with slivers of garlic before smothering.
