Braised steak, onions and carrots

this dish is really simple, uses only 3 ingredients (ok not including olive oil and salt/pepper).

The secret is to colour the vegies and steak in the dish before slow cooking.

You will need

1kg of chuck steak (whole steaks, not diced)
3 or 4 carrots, sliced lengthways
1 or 2 brown onions, cut into pieces
olive oil
sea salt
cracked black pepper

roasting pan, tin foil.

Brown the onions, carrots and steak in olive oil in a good roasting dish. seasoning with salt and pepper as it browns.
Place 1 cup of hot water in with the steak and veg.
Cover the pan tightly with tin foil, place in a hot oven (say 250C) for 10 minutes, then turn the oven down to 160C.
Cook for 2 hours
Remove from oven and let the dish rest in a warm place, covered with a tea towel for 10 minutes.

Just help the meat fall apart into chunks, and serve with green vegetables and nicely mashed potato.

Bon Appetit!
