I actually make this occasionally, including some sautéed onions. They have it at Texas Roadhouse, “roadkill” on the menu, and it is so good.

My mom used to make Swiss steak, with a thick, tomatoey sauce or gravy. Does anyone have a good recipe for that?

Swiss steak.. My Mom’s Tuesday Special. Remembrances of my Mom’s cooking is not one of comforting nostalgia.

I think her swiss steak was pan broiled tenderized round steak, with a can of tomato soup dumped over it, served on a bed of white rice.

I just had the thought that maybe that is why my Dad spent years on aircraft carriers, 9 months, 18 months, for 25 years in the Navy. It was to escape my Mom’s cooking.

There was a restaurant in a small town near here that made it similar to that. I think the base meat was actually a minute steak. Was my favorite meal and my favorite restaurant for a while there. 1980s timeframe.

Always tender and delicious. I don’t remember mashed potatoes. Probably home fries on the side.
