Provided by Suzanne Tracht

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

For pot roast
1/2 cup canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 pounds boneless short ribs, denuded (all surface fat removed; have your butcher do this)
1 cup dry sherry
4 carrots, peeled and roughly chopped
2 large onions, peeled and roughly chopped
8 stalks celery, peeled and roughly chopped
8 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 bay leaf
About 8 cups (2 quarts) chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth
For roasted carrots and caramelized onions
6 medium carrots (about 2 pounds) peeled, halved lengthwise, then halved horizontally
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 medium Spanish onions, sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (about 6 to 7 cups)

Steps:

  • Prepare pot roast
  • Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat to 350°F. Season beef liberally with salt and pepper. In large Dutch oven or heavy ovenproof pot over moderately high heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Add beef and sear until dark brown and crisp on both sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer beef to large plate. Pour off oil in pan and discard. Add sherry and simmer uncovered, scraping up browned bits on bottom of pan, until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Pour reduced sherry into heatproof liquid measuring cup.
  • In same pan, combine carrots, onions, celery, garlic, and bay leaf. Lay beef on top of vegetable mixture and pour reduced sherry over. Add enough chicken stock to cover 3/4 of meat. Cover and transfer to lower rack in oven. Roast until fork-tender, about 3 hours.
  • While beef is roasting, prepare roasted carrots and caramelized onions
  • During final hour of roasting, in large bowl, toss carrots with olive oil until well coated. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Spread on baking sheet and transfer to upper rack in oven. Roast until slightly tender and browned, about 45 minutes. Transfer to large bowl and keep warm.
  • During final 30 minutes of roasting, in heavy 12-inch skillet over moderately high heat, heat canola oil until hot but not smoking. Add onions and sauté, stirring constantly, until caramelized, about 20 to 25 minutes. Season to taste with kosher salt, add to roasted carrots in large bowl, and keep warm.
  • Finish dish
  • When beef is tender, transfer to serving platter; tent with foil. Skim fat from liquid in pot. Strain liquid through fine-mesh sieve, pressing on solids with back of spoon to extract all juices, then discarding solids. Return liquid to pot, set over high heat, and bring to boil. Reduce heat to moderate and simmer, uncovered, until reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Season juices to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Pour half of juices into bowl with carrots and onions; toss to combine. Pour other half of juices into gravy dish. Arrange carrots and onions around beef on serving platter and serve immediately, with extra juices on side.

SIMPLE ROASTED CARROTS & ONIONS



Simple Roasted Carrots & Onions image

Ridiculously easy -- and they don't last in my house; even the picky eater wolfs down the carrots! Based on a recipe from Nov. '06 Sunset.

Provided by chakrates

Categories     Onions

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 lbs carrots
3 red onions
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425.
  • Peel carrots and onions. Cut onions in quarters, leaving root ends in tact, so that they hold the quarters together. Cut carrots into 2 - 3" pieces, and if the carrots are really fat, cut them lengthwise into halvves or quarters. (You can adjust the quanitities of everything -- it's just that the program here wants specifics.).
  • Put them onto a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan and drizzle with olive oil and salt and mix them with your hands so that they are lightly coated. The pan does really matter here -- if you use something with sides, they steam rather than roast.
  • Roast for 15 minutes, turn and roast for 15 - 30 minutes more. At this point, they should be cooked, but they can go longer if they're not done. they should be crisp/tender (if they go longer, they get soft, which I'm starting to like, too) and have browned spots on them.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast is a great option for pot roast, as it is flavorful and tender when cooked slowly. Other good choices include rump roast and brisket.
  • Brown the beef before braising: Browning the beef in a pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat before adding the braising liquid will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to carrots and onions, other vegetables that can be added to pot roast include celery, potatoes, turnips, and parsnips.
  • Add herbs and spices: A few well-chosen herbs and spices can greatly enhance the flavor of pot roast. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, garlic, and bay leaves.
  • Braise the pot roast on low heat: Pot roast should be braised on low heat for at least 2-3 hours, or until the beef is tender and fall-apart. This can be done in a Dutch oven in the oven or on the stovetop.
  • Serve pot roast with a flavorful sauce: The braising liquid from the pot roast can be used to make a delicious sauce. Simply thicken the liquid with a cornstarch slurry or roux, and season to taste.

Conclusion:

Pot roast is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning and effort, you can create a pot roast that your family and friends will love.
