Ingredients

 * 2 Lb Braising Steak, cut into 2-inch strips
 * Salt and Black Pepper
 * 2 Garlic Cloves, crushed
 * 1 medium Onion, sliced
 * Cold Water

Directions

 * 1) Place all the ingredients in a large saucepan, cover with ½ - inch of cold water and bring to the boil, stirring.
 * 2) Reduce the heat, partially cover the pan and simmer gently for about 2 hours, keeping an eye on the water level and topping up when necessary, until meat is very tender and can be shredded with a fork.
