Ingredients:

Potatoes:
1/4 cup (60 ml) butter or margarine
6 medium new red potatoes, cut into wedges
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) salt
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) pepper

Steak:
1/3 cup (80 ml) all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) salt
Pinch of pepper
4 beef cubed steaks

Gravy:
1 T (15 ml) butter or margarine
1 T (15 ml) all-purpose flour
1 cup (240 ml) milk
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) salt
Pinch of pepper

Directions:
In large skillet melt 1/4 cup (60 ml) butter until sizzling. Add remaining potato ingredients. Cook over medium high heat, turning occasionally, until golden brown (10 to 15 minutes). Place potatoes on platter; keep warm while preparing steaks and gravy. In pie pan,
or on a plate, stir together all steak ingredients except steaks. Coat both sides of steaks with flour mixture. Place 2 steaks in same skillet. Cook over medium high heat until brown and crispy (about 3 minutes on each side). Remove steaks to platter with potatoes.  Cook remaining steaks. Reduce heat to medium. In same skillet with drippings and brown particles melt 1 T (15 ml) butter; stir in 1 T (15 ml) flour. Cook, stirring occasionally, until smooth and bubbly (1 minute). Stir in remaining gravy ingredients. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until gravy thickens (4 to 5 minutes). Serve over steaks and potatoes.
