Carne Guisada

This is a recipe that I have perfected.  After always failing, I finally got it right.  You will never go out and order this plate at a restaurant again.  I plated this with some black beans.  Delicious.  Enjoy!

2 lbs beef top round steak cubed
3 tsp flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
 1 1/2 tsp pepper
2 tsp minced dried onion
1/4 tsp ground garlic
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp chili powder
1/3 cup tomato sauce
2 tsp canola oil or cooking oil of your choice

Brown meat.  Season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper.  Once meat has browned, sprinkle flour over meat and stir.  Pour 1/2 cup water and allow to thicken.  after adding water, add remaining ingredients.  add more water if it thickens too much or too quick.
