Description

The recipe is not Swiss in origin. Rather, it is named for the process of swissing which is normally performed by smoothing cloth between a set of rollers. The recipe involves the meat being pounded flat, a method that can be likened to that of swissing, hence the name.

  1. 4 beef cubed steaks (4 ounces each)
  2. 1 Tablespoon canola oil
  3. 1 large onion, chopped
  4. 1 celery rib, chopped

  9. 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
  10. 1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules
  11. 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
  12. 2 Tablespoons cold water

Instructions

  1. In a large nonstick frying pan, brown cubed steaks on both sides in oil over medium high heat; remove and set aside.
  2. In the same frying pan, sauté the onion, celery and garlic for 3 to 4 minutes or until tender.
  3. Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce and bouillon.
  4. Return steaks to the pan. Bring to a boil.
