Ingredients

500 gram stewing steak (we used chuck)

1/4 cup seasoned flour

1 sliced onion

1 large tomato, skinned and chopped

salt and pepper

1 tablespoon malt vinegar

1 cup water

2 slice stale white bread, soaked in 1/2 cup milk

1 egg, beaten

Method

1.Cut meat into small pieces and roll in some seasoned flour to cover well. I do this by putting flour, salt and pepper in a plastic bag, followed by the steak pieces, and shaking it around until they are well covered.

2.Put the meat into a greased pudding basin and add onion, tomato, salt and pepper. Pour vinegar and water over the meat.

3.Squeeze the bread to remove most of the milk, break into small pieces and put in a bowl to which you add the beaten egg. Mix together to form a sort of dough.

4.Press the bread mixture over the top of the meat, cover your basin with a lid or baking paper. Make the circle of paper 10 cm larger than the basin and then you can tie it down around the top with string.

5.Place into a saucepan of boiling water so that it reaches halfway up the basin. Put on the lid and simmer for 2 hours and 30 minutes.
