For The Et Sote
- 250 grams cubed lean beef
- 2 medium tomatoes (1 chopped & 1 grated)
- 2 green peppers (deseeded & roughly chopped)
- 1 onion (peeled & roughly chopped)
- 1 fresh chilli (finely chopped (optional))
- 1 dessert spoonful tomato puree
- 20 grams butter
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 handful parsley (finely chopped (to garnish))
- salt & pepper (to taste)
For The Bread
- 100 grams bread
- 20 grams butter
- 1 teaspoon chilli flakes
For The Et Sote
Add your meat & butter to a frying pan and cook on a medium heat.
Once the juices have reduced, add your onion & pepper (and chilli, if using).
Stir around until your onion & pepper have softened a little.
Now add your grated tomato & simmer for a few minutes to allow your beef to cook through.
Add your chopped tomato, oregano & seasoning and stir.
After a couple of minutes, add your salça (tomato paste) and around 100 millilitres of water.
Stir until your salça has dissolved and simmer until your beef has completely softened.
Add more water if your sauce thickens too much.
Remove from the heat.
For The Bread
Roughly cut your bread into bite-sized chunks.
Heat the butter & chilli flakes in a pan & add the bread.
Stir around until the bread starts to crisp & toast (around 2 minutes).
Arrange the bread around the edges of two large bowls and add your et sote to the centre.
Sprinkle with the parsley and serve.
