BRAISED BEEF TIPS WITH VEGETABLES
*My personal favorite*
----------------------------------------------
2 T Oil
1 1/2 pounds Beef Tips in 1 1/2-inch cubes
2 Onions, thinly sliced
1 C Water
1 Apple, pared, cored, and thinly sliced
2 1-pound cans Tomatoes
2 tsp Sugar
2 tsp Salt
1/8 tsp Pepper
8 Carrots, sliced diagonally
1 head Cabbage cut in wedges (1 1/2 pounds)
Heat oil in a large skillet; add beef and brown on all sides.
Remove.
Add onions and cook slowly until golden brown.
Add beef.
Stir in 1 cup water.
Add apple and tomatoes,
then sprinkle with sugar, salt, and pepper.
Bring to a boil,
reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 2 hours.
Add carrots and cabbage to meat mixture, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes.
Yield: 4 servings, this is more like a hearty soup, and the beef is unbelieveably tender.
