Back in the late 1920's and early 1930's a woman by the name of Florence White compiled a large set of recipes to celebrate the regional dishes of England. The book Good Things in England was republished in 2003 and is listed on Amazon.co.uk for £12 and Amazon.com for $22.71. This Staffordshire Beef Steaks recipe that dates from 1823.

Ingredients: beef steaks, flour, pepper; salt; dripping; onions; boiling water; mushroom or walnut ketchup a spoonful.

Time: about 1 1/2 hours or more according to the tenderness of the meat.

Method:

  3. fry them a nice brown in a little dripping
  4. lift them out and place them in a fireproof glass oven dish
  5. fry some sliced onions, add a little flour to them, sufficient to take up all the fat
  6. fry a nice brown but don't burn
  7. pour enough boiling water over them to make a nice thick gravy (it must not be too thick)
