My notes: Donn made this 9/14/06. Was real good-used Dutch oven method. It did not get real thick so we added about 1 ½ cups of couscous. Yummy!

Preparation

Step 1

In skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium high heat. Saute onion until translucent; remove and set aside.

In same skillet, saute round steak until browned.

Meanwhile, stir together mushroom soup, onion soup mix, beef broth and 1 cup water until blended; add onion and pour over browned meat.

Reduce heat, cover with tight fitting lid, and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until beef is fork tender. If using Dutch oven, cover and cook in preheated 350 degree oven for 1 ½ -2 hours.

Serve over cooked rice or egg noodles.

Add additional water during cooking if sauce gets too thick.
