SUNDAY POT ROAST WITH GRAVY (FOR DIABETICS)



Sunday Pot Roast with Gravy (for diabetics) image

One thing about traditional pot roast is the potatoes (carbs) and gravy (fat and carbs). Here is an alternative to try. It retains all the flavor of grandma's Sunday pot roast, but prevents me from eating so many carbs. I can get my carbs with a good homemade roll with this meal, and be totally happy!

YANKEE POT ROAST



Yankee Pot Roast image

Despite the hours it requires, pot roast is extremely easy to prepare because it needs little tending while it cooks, and it produces satisfying food for a crowd or for several meals, often both. That it calls for relatively inexpensive cuts of beef is also in its favor.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 4h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 pounds boneless chuck in one thick piece with a thin layer of fat on one side
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 medium-size onion, finely chopped
1 medium-size carrot, finely chopped
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups water or 1 cup each water and rich veal or beef stock
1 cup dry red wine
Leaves from four sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
1 1-pint basket pearl onions, blanched and peeled
4 carrots, peeled and cut in 2-inch sticks 1/2-inch thick
1 small rutabaga, peeled and cut in 2-inch sticks 1/2-inch thick
4 parsnips, peeled and cut in 2-inch sticks 1/2-inch thick
4 ribs celery cut in 2-inch sticks 1/2-inch thick
3 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Season the meat with salt and pepper. Place a deep, heavy roasting pan or casserole on top of stove. Add oil and when it is hot, add meat, fat side down, and sear it. Then turn meat and brown on all sides. Remove meat from pan and set aside.
  • Add the garlic, chopped onion and carrot to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Sprinkle with flour, cook for 1 minute longer, stirring constantly. Gradually add the water and the wine, allowing the sauce to thicken. Bring to a boil and add the thyme and bay leaves. Return the meat to the pan, season lightly with salt and pepper and place in the oven, uncovered.
  • Cook uncovered for two hours, turning the meat every 30 minutes. The sauce should bubble gently; lower heat if it cooks too fast. If the sauce becomes too thick add water.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients except the parsley. Cook 20 minutes longer, stirring once or twice. Remove from the oven and place on top of the stove.
  • Remove meat from sauce and slice it in 1/2-inch-thick slices. Skim sauce of any excess fat and season with salt and pepper. Remove bay leaves. Reheat gently, spoon sauce and vegetables over meat, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
