• In a large Dutch oven, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast again with salt and pepper and dust with flour, shaking off the excess. Sear on all sides, browning the meat evenly, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Remove the roast to a plate, then add the carrots, turnips and onion to the pot. Lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, garlic, thyme and bay leaves and cook another 2 minutes.

Cover, leaving the lid slightly ajar, and place in the oven to cook under very tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours, testing with a small knife for tenderness after 3 hours.
