     HERB-STEAK-1 - An Australian herbed meat dish
     Adapted from The Australian and New  Zealand  Countrywoman's
     Cookbook by Carol Odell.

INGREDIENTS (About 4 or 5 servings)

     1 kg      steak
     2         onions, finely chopped.
     10 ml     brown sugar
     10 ml     salt
     2.5 ml    pepper
     pinch     cayenne
     10 ml     mixed herbs, including thyme, sage, and oregano.
     10 ml     chopped capers
     80 ml     ketchup (or tomato sauce, in the Australian sense,

     10 ml     Worcestershire sauce
     80 ml     vinegar

               chopped onion.
          (3)  Blend other ingredients together, and  pour  over.
               (The chopped onion holds some of the liquid.)
          (4)  Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours.
          (5)  Bake, covered with foil or ovenproof lid,  at  175
               deg. C for 50 to 60 minutes.

     Adjust the flavourings according to your taste; in  particu-
     lar, you may wish to reduce the vinegar.

RATING

     inating, 1 hour cooking.  Precision: approximate measurement
