Pepper Steak

This is sort of a cross between Mom's Spanish Steak and Chinese stir-fry.





List of Ingredients



• 1 round steak, cut into 1/4-inch wide strips
  
• 2-3 large peppers, cut into bite-sized chunks
  
• 2-3 large onions, cut into 1/4-inch wedges
  
• 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
  
• 1 slice gingerroot about the size of a half dollar
  
• 3 large tomatoes, wedged (or 1 quart canned)
  
• a little cayenne (opt.)
  






Instructions



1. In a large frypan or wok, add a little oil and heat to medium-high heat. Swish gingerroot until it's just a little brown. Remove from pan and discard. Brown steak strips, 1/3 at a time. Remove. Saute peppers, onions, and garlic separately until crispy tender. Return all to pan. Sprinkle with a little flour. Add the tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Cook to reduce liquid to about half of the original. Adjust seasonings. Simmer about 20 minutes.
   
2. Serve over rice.
   






Final Comments


For the two of us, I cut the recipe in thirds. I buy a large round steak and slice it. Then I freeze 2/3 of it in two packages.
