This is a treasured family recipe for Swiss steak, passed down from my mother. It differs from many versions you might find and is wonderfully straightforward to prepare. The resulting steak becomes beautifully tender, and the flavourful gravy it creates is absolutely delicious when spooned over creamy mashed potatoes. It's a comforting and satisfying dish that serves four to six people.
