Beef Cutlets and Buttered Vegetables
November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ Connie
This is a variation of pot roast. Actually, I was planning on making pot roast beef with white sauce when I discovered that I had no beef slab left in the freezer. All I had were beef cubes. Problem? Not really. The trick, again, was to improvise. Slicing the beef cubes thinly and cooking them until tender would have resulted in lifeless beef slices that would disintegrate by the time they were fork tender. I thought I should pre-cook the beef cubes, cool them and then slice them to the desired thickness. They would be tender but firm. And to make sure that they do not appear and taste dry, I later pan-fried them in butter. This is really a simple dish to prepare. But it has to be prepared in stages.
To make the browned onion bits, I strongly suggest using sweet white onions. The more strongly-flavored red onions taste bitter when browned in this manner.
