• 1 1/2 kilos meat (lamb or calf)

• 2 tablespoons parsley
• 3/4 kilo mature tomatoes or a can of tomatoes
• 1/2 glass of white wine
• 1/2 glass olive oil

Cut the meat in pieces (the size of an egg), wash it and drain. Warm half the oil up in a casserole and leave the meat to sautee from all its sides.

Remove the meat and place it in a clean casserole. Using the same oil sautee the onions cut in thin slices and once they are brown, add them to the meat (without the oil). When they start frying add the wine to the meat.

Then, add the tomatoes cut in small pieces, salt, pepper, the rest of the oil and leave on the boil. If needed, add some warm water every now and then (the onions must melt until they become a thick sauce).

Remove from the fire once the sauce is ready. It can be served with rice, mash potatoes, croquettes, chips etc.

Note: If you a want a spicy Tas Kebab, you can add in the sauce, just before you remove it from the fire, one or two hot peppers.
