  • Step 5: Add in garlic and bay leaves and saute for 2 minutes.

  • Step 6: Add in mushrooms, stewed tomatoes with juice, Worcestershire sauce and beef bouillon powder;bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.

  • Step 7: Add the browned steaks back to the pot.

  • Step 8: Season sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.

  • Step 9: Reduce heat to just about low and cook covered for about 1-1/2 hours seasoning with seasoned salt and pepper about halfway through cooking time.

  • Step 10: If you wish to thicken the juice, remove the beef to a bowl or plate.

  • Step 11: For a thicker sauce; mix the water or beef broth with cornstarch until smooth and add into the simmering liquid, stir until thickened (about 2 minutes) then add in the steaks back to the pot.
