Joe's Swiss Roast

"We had a large left-over Round Roast we needed to do something new with. I found a recipe for Swiss Steak and 'reconfigured' it to work. It turned out really good. Here it is! To save time, I used instant mashed potatoes, but if this turns you off, you can substitute with real. Also, I would imagine that any leftover beef would work in this recipe."

directions

  • In a large plastic storage bag, add flour, 1/4 tsp salt, pepper, and shake to mix. Slice the round roast into four servings, about 3/8 inch thick and place in the bag with the flour mixture. Shake and massage the bag to coat the meat. Set aside.
  • Add the oil to a large skillet and cook the onions, carrots and celery until the onions are translucent. Move the vegetables to the outside of the skillet and place the coated meat, and any remaining flour, in the center. Pan-fry the meat for about a minute on each side to slightly brown the meat. Add more oil if needed. Add the thyme, tomatoes and 1 cup water and reduce heat to medium low. Simmer for about 15 minutes. The liquid should reduce and thicken. Stir as needed to avoid sticking.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium sauce pan, heat 1-1/4 cup water, milk, butter, garlic and 1/2 tsp salt to boiling. Remove from heat, add instant potatoes, stir and let set for a minute to fluff up.
  • Plate the meat and potatoes, cover both with the tomato sauce, and enjoy!

  1. This was a very different and unusual way to use up leftover roast. But it was very good.
