Steaks on bread | Traditional Portuguese Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 pork steaks
• 1 (430 g) Baker Bread
• 400 ml of beer
• 3 cloves of garlic
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 bay leaf
• 150 g tomato pulp
• 30 g vegetable cooking cream
• 1 tbsp (soup) piripiri
• Salt and mustard to taste

PREPARATION:

Place one steak at a time between two sheets of cling film and flatten them very well, beating with the rolling pin. Season the meat with the peeled and chopped garlic cloves, salt, bay leaf and chilli pepper. Drizzle with beer and let marinate for 30 minutes.

In a pan, melt the vegetable cooking cream together with the olive oil. Drain the steaks and pour the marinade into the pan. Add the tomato pulp and let it boil for about 15 minutes over moderate to low heat. Add the steaks and cook over low heat for about 30 minutes, or until they are tender. Turn the meat occasionally.

Meanwhile, cut the carcasses in half. Spread the bread with mustard, drizzle with some meat sauce and fill with the steaks.
