Braised Lebanese Steak

6 steaks about 3-4 lbs
2 cups mushrooms cut in 1/2
2 potatoes cut into wedges
1/4 onion
1 1/2 lemon juiced
1/4 teaspoon 7 spice
water
3 tablespoons Olive oil
salt&pepper
How2:
I made this dish in a pressure cooker you may bake this or cook it over stove top it may take a bit longer but you still have the same result.

Prep everything cut the mushroom sin half, cut the potatoes into wedges traditionally they would fry the potatoes I prefer to bake them until golden.
seasion the beef with salt ,pepper and set aside.
Heat a skillet to med-high, once heated add about 2 tablespoons of oil normally steak may release some fluids as it cooks that's why the picture appears like its greasy.
place a few steaks at a time and allow it to brown on each side at this point your not looking to cook it this is just to develop flavors.
continue to brown each steak on each side and place into a pressure cooker you may place this in a regular pot.
once all the beef has been browned add the mushrooms to the pot with the remaining tablespoon of oil you may lower the heat. Saute for about 3 mins until golden seasion with salt and pepper.
place mushrooms into the pot add enough water to barely cover the meat, add 7 spice cover and cook for about 35mins. allow the cooker to cool . once its ready to be opened open it and place beef into a serving dish.
Add the potatoes  and allow it to simmer this will cook the potatoes and develop a sauce.
once the potatoes have cooked and the sauce has developed this takes about 15mins.
pour the lemon juice into the sauce,taste if its needs any more salt.
pour over the beef.

This is my favorite beef dish! I hope you like it.
NOTE:
If your cooking this stove top in a regular pot follow all the directions but it may take about 45mins untill the meat is tender.
