Method

  1. Heat the oil in a pan. Fry steak for 2 mins on each side until brown. Remove steak to a plate, then throw the onion, garlic and oregano into the pan. Fry for 5 mins until starting to turn golden.
  2. Tip the wine and tomatoes into the pan, then simmer for 10 mins until thickened and rich. Slice the steak into chunks, return to the pan with any juices, then simmer for a few mins to reheat. Serve with pasta, chips or some fried potatoes.

Keep it fresh

If you decide to buy larger canned goods, make sure that you transfer the remaining contents to a plastic container and use within a few days.

Think ahead

Plan your meals so that you can recycle your leftovers, for instance cook extra boiled potatoes one night and use them in a frittata the next day.

Shopping for one

It's often cheaper to buy meat, chicken and fish in larger packs, so divide it into portions and freeze for another time.

    Ok, but the meat didn't seem to have enough time to soak up the flavours. The sauce itself was delicious.

    This made a very nice meal but would say pick your wine carefully as it can be quite rich.

    Personally found it far too much for one person, meat cooked lovely, sauce could have been a little thicker.

    Not bad, I had mine with pasta. It needed plenty of salt and pepper. I also added a little balsamic vinegar to the onions.

    I had to simmer the beef for another hour to allow it to absorb the flavour of the sauce.
