Ingredients
Instructions
- Choose a middle grade of beef that is not too fatty or cheap.
- Put enough margarine in a pan so the meat will not stick, then brown the beef on both sides.
- Put a little vinegar on both sides of the meat to cut enzymes.
- Sprinkle Adolph's tenderizer with spices on the meat.
- When the meat is browned, cover with enough water to submerge all the meat but not overflow the pan.
- Cut up celery and onion; add them to the pan with the meat.
- Maintain enough water so it does not run dry, turning the meat periodically for even cooking.
- Cook until the meat is tender and can be cut with a fork, then it falls apart.
- Prepare a slurry by putting 2 tablespoons of flour into 1/2 cup of water in a covered jar, then shake well until smooth.
- Add the flour mixture to the pan; you may need to add more flour to thicken.
- Cover the pan and simmer on low heat until the dish is ready.
