Braised Beef Roast In Wine Vinegar

Recipe Ingredients

2 lbs	908g / 32oz	Top round roast
2		Garlic cloves - slivered
		Fine sea salt - to taste
		Coarsely-ground black pepper - to taste
1 tablespoon	15ml	Olive oil
1 tablespoon	15ml	Onion - diced (large)
1/4 cup	59ml	Red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon	15ml	Minced flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons	45ml	Minced fresh basil
1 tablespoon	15ml	Carrot - peeled and shredded (large)
1 tablespoon	15ml	Tomato paste
2 tablespoons	30ml	Dry red wine

Recipe Instructions

Dry the roast well with paper towels. Make slits all over the roast and insert the garlic slivers. Rub the roast with salt and pepper.

In a Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Brown the roast slowly on all sides. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes, or until they begin to wilt. Add the vinegar, parsley, basil, and carrot, and cook for 5 minutes.

Mix the tomato paste and wine together in a small bowl and add to the roast. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until a knife is easily inserted into the meat.

Remove the meat to a cutting board and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Strain the pan juices through a sieve set over a bowl, pressing on the solids with a wooden spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Set the pot aside.

Cut the roast into 1/4-inch slices. Return the meat to the pot, add the strained juices, and bring the juices to a simmer. Serve immediately, with some of the juices poured over the meat.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
