Ingredients

2	pounds	beef roast	pre-roasted
2	tablespoons	oregano	finely chopped, or dried, crushed
1	tablespoon	basil	fresh sweet, finely chopped, or 1 dried, crushed
1	teaspoon	black peppercorns	whole
1/2 to 1	teaspoon	red pepper flakes	ground
1	tablespoon	parsley leaves
1	x	salt
3	each	garlic cloves	minced
1	each	green bell pepper	seeded, sliced into 1/4 inch strips

Directions

Thinly slice cooked, roast beef and place in a Dutch oven (or put it back into the same pan in which the beef was roasted).

Add enough water to cover.

Add remaining ingredients and bring to simmer.

After the beef has cooked for awhile, taste and adjust seasonings.

Cook about 1 hour.

Serve beef only on Italian bread with grilled green peppers and/or giardinera relish.

As you serve dip the sandwich in your gravy.

NOTE: If you fix a large roast for dinner, take the leftovers, sliced thinly, and put your Italian beef on the stove to cook, while you're cleaning up the kitchen.

You can cook the Italian beef in the same pan used for roasting.

IF you make brown gravy for your roast beef, remove some of the drippings before you make the gravy and save them for the Italian Beef.

Spinach Dal Andrah Pradesh Style

This is delicious--spicy and very nutritious. I used a tablespoon of ghee as a saute medium (could use more if desired) and a 10-oz. package of defrosted and drained chopped spinach, which worked fine.
