Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ pounds Braising steak; cut into 4
1 Onion; chopped
6 ounces Mushrooms; sliced
2 tablespoons Flour
2 ounces Butter
Salt & pepper to taste
Bayleaf (opt)
¾ pint Beef broth

Directions

Set oven to 350øF or Mark 4. Mix the flour with the salt and pepper.

Coat the beef slices with seasoned flour. Melt the butter in a frying pan. Fry the collops for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and set aside. Gently fry the onion and the mushrooms. Put the onion and mushrooms and a bayleaf (if desired) into a casserole.

Lay the collops on top. Pour in the stock, cover and cook for 1½ hours. Serve with buttered mashed potatoes and a green vegetable.

Rowan or redcurrant jelly goes well with this dish. Serves 4.

Collops of beef are traditionally served on Burns Night.
