Best Asian Pot Roast With Turnips Recipes

ROOT VEGETABLE POT ROAST

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In 4-quart ovenproof Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle beef with salt and pepper. Add to Dutch oven; cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove beef from Dutch oven; set aside.
• Cook onions in drippings 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Place beef on onions. In medium bowl, stir together broth, wine, tomato paste, garlic and thyme with whisk. Pour over beef and onions. Heat to simmering.
• Cover; bake 1 hour 30 minutes. Arrange rutabaga, parsnips, turnips and carrots around beef. Cover; bake 1 hour longer or until beef and vegetables are tender. (Shred beef, using 2 forks, if desired.) Serve beef and vegetables with cooking liquid.

ASIAN POT ROAST: A NEW TAKE ON A CLASSIC SUNDAY DINNER

Steps:

• Pat the beef dry with a paper towel. Heat the oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the roast and sear for 5 minutes on each side, until browned.
• Add the ginger and cook for 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the onions, garlic, beef stock, wine, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and sugar. Bring to a boil. Turn down the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
• After an hour and 30 minutes has elapsed, stir in the carrots, cover, and simmer for another hour. Uncover, and stir in the scallions and cornstarch mixture. Continue to simmer, stirring gently, until the sauce has thickened and the scallions have wilted (about 2-3 minutes). Serve!

ASIAN POT ROAST WITH TURNIPS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat, add the roast (you can cover the pot loosely to reduce spattering), and sear for about 5 minutes on each side, or until nicely browned. While the meat is browning, combine the soy sauce, ginger, star anise, and 2 cups of water in a casserole big enough to hold the meat snugly. Bring this mixture to a boil, then adjust the heat so it simmers.
• When the meat is browned, add it to the simmering liquid and cover the pot. Cook, turning the meat once or twice an hour and adding more water if necessary, for about 3 hours, or until the meat is just about tender (poke it with a thin-bladed knife; when the meat is done, it will meet little resistance). Fish out the star anise and add the rutabaga, stirring to make sure it is coated with liquid (again, add more water if necessary). Re-cover and cook until the rutabaga is very tender, about 30 minutes.
• Remove the meat and carve it, then return it to the pot (or put it on a platter with the sauce and the rutabaga). Garnish with the scallion and serve.
• Variation
• European Pot Roast with Carrots: Use olive oil for searing. Replace the soy-water mixture, ginger, and star anise with a mixture of 2 cups red wine, 20 peeled pearl onions (the frozen ones aren't bad), 5 peeled and lightly smashed garlic cloves, and 1 cup trimmed, chopped mushrooms. Add more wine (or water) if necessary to the simmering meat as it cooks. Substitute carrots for the rutabaga in step 2 and garnish with chopped fresh parsley in place of scallion.
