Take a pound of braising steak, cubed, place in a pan of water, and bring to the boil, skimming off any fat!., then while the water is boiling, add your chopped, sliced or diced vegetables; carrots, potatoes, leeks, swede, onions, add a couple of stock cubes, and season to taste!. Add a handful of lentils, and, also, add a can of vegetable soup!. Stir well, bring back to the boil, and then turn down to simmer for about three hours, stiiring regularlyWww@FoodAQ@Com

The way you would make a regular beef stew but using steak!.!. Now the question is why on earth would you take a cut of meat the is already tender and subject it to the tortures of long slow cooking, intended to break down connective tissues and fat that a steak does not have!? A good steak is best cooked with high heat for a short time period!.
The steak cooked as stew will be tougher and have far less taste than a cheap blade or 7-bone roast!.
PLEASE save the steak for the grill!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

2 Tbsp!.s Worcestershire sauce
1 (10-ounce) package frozen peas

The next day, preheat the oven to 300o F!.
Combine the flour, 1 Tbsp!. salt, and 1 Tbsp!. pepper!. Lift the beef out of the marinade with a slotted spoon and discard the bay leaves and garlic, saving the marinade!. In batches, dredge the cubes of beef in the flour mixture and then shake off the excess!. Heat 2 Tbsp!.s of olive oil in a large pot and brown half the beef over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes, turning to brown evenly!. Place the beef in a large oven-proof Dutch oven and continue to brown the remaining beef, adding oil as necessary!. (If the beef is very lean, you'll need more oil!.) Place all the beef in the Dutch oven!.
Heat another 2 Tbsp!.s of oil to the large pot and add the onions, carrots, mushrooms, and potatoes!. Cook for 10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally!. Add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes!. Place all the vegetables in the Dutch oven over the beef!. Add 2 1/2 cups of the reserved marinade to the empty pot and cook over high heat to deglaze the bottom of the pan, scraping up all the brown bits with a wooden spoon!. Add the chicken stock, rosemary, sun-dried tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, 1 Tbsp!. salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper!. Pour the sauce over the meat and vegetables in the Dutch oven and bring to a simmer over medium heat on top of the stove!. Cover the pot and place it in the oven to bake it for about 2 hours, until the meat and vegetables are all tender, stirring once during cooking!. If the stew is boiling rather than simmering, lower the heat to 250 or 275o F!.
Before serving, stir in the frozen peas, season to taste, and serve hot!.
