Categories     Beef

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lb beef round steak
four
salt
pepper
oil-for browning
1 can(s) mushroom soup
1 can(s) tomato soup
1 1/2 can(s) water

Steps:

  • 1. Mix flour,salt, pepper & any additional seasonings to your taste. Dredge meat, cut in portion size pieces, in the flour mixture.
  • 2. Put enough oil in the bottom pressure cooker and heat. Add floured meat pieces and brown on both sides. Drain if there seems to be an excess amount of oil left after browning, but usually not necessary, and return meat to cooker.
  • 3. Mix mushroom soup and tomato soup with the water in a bowl. Whisk well to combine and make smooth. Pour over the meat that is in the cooker.
  • 4. Put the pressure cooker on and let seal. Cook for 20 minutes while under pressure. Remove from heat and let pressure drop completely before trying to open lid.
  • 5. The soups should have thickened during the cooking time to make a nice gravy to put over the meat and potatoes - which I cook while the meat is in the pressure cooker.

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 lbs round steaks, 1 inch thick cut into serving pieces
1 cup flour
salt and pepper
4 teaspoons cooking oil

4 cups tomato juice

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, round steak, or flank steak are all good options for Swiss steak. These cuts are relatively inexpensive and have a good amount of marbling, which will help to keep the meat moist during cooking.
  • Brown the meat before cooking: Browning the meat before cooking helps to develop flavor and create a nice crust. You can brown the meat in a skillet over medium-high heat or in your pressure cooker on the sauté setting.
  • Use a good quality Swiss cheese: The type of Swiss cheese you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your dish. Look for a cheese that is flavorful and melts well.
  • Don't overcook the meat: Swiss steak is best when it is cooked until it is tender, but not overcooked. Overcooked meat will be tough and dry.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Swiss steak is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.

Conclusion:

Swiss steak is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a hit with the family. By following these tips, you can make a delicious and flavorful Swiss steak that everyone will love.
