Beef lemonato

Moschari lemonato | Beef lemonato. Super simple braised beef finished with lots of lemon and just the right amount of Greek oregano.


#RECIPE:
3 tbsp olive oil
1.5 lb beef stewing steak
1 small onion, grated
salt and pepper
2-3 lemons, juiced
2 teaspoons dried oregano, or to taste
METHOD:
In a medium saucepan heat the oil over medium high heat. Brown the beef in batches, then add the onion and cook till softened. Cover generously with water and season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer gently for about 1 hour, till the beef is tender. At the very end, add the lemon juice and oregano and simmer gently for 5-10 minutes. Taste and add more seasoning or oregano, if liked. (Watch the oregano as adding too much will make the dish bitter.) Serve over rice or with French fries. .
