I really like this recipe for Swiss Steak, but no one else here really does. My husband doesn't like tomatoes, my kids aren't big on meat. Sometimes, though, I cook it because I get what I want occasionally.
I start with a round steak or some other fairly tough cut of beef. Trim the fat and cut into serving size pieces. Dredge in flour seasoned with pepper, garlic powder, paprika and chili powder and brown in a skillet. While the beef browns, put enough rice in the bottom of the crock pot to feed your family, add water (or beef broth) for the rice according to the package directions, and a can of tomato sauce. When the meat is nice and brown on both sides arrange on top of the rice and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
I like the tomato sauce on top of the meat, but as I have said, not everyone here does. This goes well with mashed potatoes and green beans. I know, rice and mashed potatoes aren't usually served together but my household thinks potatoes must be served at every meal.
This time of year, if I am using new potatoes, I just scrub them, cook them and mash them without peeling them.
Let me know if you like this dish. Then I can tell my family they are crazy.
