Old Fashioned Pot Roast With Onion Gravy Recipes

POT-ROAST BEEF WITH FRENCH ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Rub the meat with 1 tsp of the oil and plenty of seasoning. Heat a large flameproof casserole dish and brown the meat all over for about 10 mins. Meanwhile, add 2 tsp oil to a frying pan and fry the carrots and celery for 10 mins until turning golden.
• Lift the beef onto a plate, splash the wine into the hot casserole and boil for 2 mins. Pour in the stock, return the beef, then tuck in the carrots, celery and bay leaves, trying not to submerge the carrots too much. Cover and cook in the oven for 2 hrs. (I like to turn the beef halfway through cooking.)
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the onions. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan and stir in the onions, thyme and some seasoning. Cover and cook gently for 20 mins until the onions are softened but not coloured. Remove the lid, turn up the heat, add the butter and sugar, then let the onions caramelise to a dark golden brown, stirring often. Remove the thyme sprigs, then set aside.
• When the beef is ready, it will be tender and easy to pull apart at the edges. Remove it from the casserole and snip off the strings. Reheat the onion pan, stir in the flour and cook for 1 min. Whisk the floury onions into the beefy juices in the casserole, to make a thick onion gravy. Taste for seasoning. Add the beef and carrots back to the casserole, or slice the beef and bring to the table on a platter, with the carrots to the side and the gravy spooned over.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat the Dutch oven on medium heat until it is hot. Add a little oil of choice and heat that too.
• Sear both sides of your chuck roast, about five minutes on each side. Just brown it.
• Remove the roast from the pan and set aside on a plate.
• Add the chopped onion and celery to the oil and juices in the pan. Cook for a few minutes while stirring. These will mostly dissolve during the cooking of the roast but they add tons of flavor.
• Add the roast back into the pan and add 1/2 cup of water or beef broth and cover.
• Place the Dutch oven in the oven.
• Cook for about two hours at 350 degrees.
• After two hours add peeled and quartered russet potatoes. The size of your pot will determine how many you can add. But allow about ½- 1 potato for each person.
• Cook for another hour. Remove pan from oven and check for doneness in potatoes. They should be tender and cooked through.
• Check that the roast is done. It should pull apart easily with a fork. If it needs to cook more, remove potatoes and return to the oven for another half an hour.
• Or if the roast is done and the potatoes aren't, remove the roast and cook the potatoes for more time.
• When the roast and potatoes are both done cooking, let them rest in the pan until ready to serve to keep them warm.
• Granny recommends cooking the carrots separately to retain their color and flavor. This is how to do it.
• Peel the carrots, and slice off tip and the stem. Cut in half, then cut each half into about four carrot sticks.
• Place carrots in saucepan with a small amount of water. Add a little salt and about a teaspoon of sugar. Cook until tender but not too soft, about 10 minutes.
• To serve, place the pot roast in the center of a platter and surround with the potatoes and carrots.
