5 tbsps

Olive Oil

Directions:

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F

2

Heat a large Dutch oven, with a lid, over medium-high heat

3

Season the meat generously with salt and pepper, and sprinkle lightly with the flour

4

Add the oil to the pot, lay the meat in the pan and sear on both sides until a deep mahogany brown, about 10 minutes

5

Transfer the meat to a plate

6

Pour all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil from the pan

7

Add the onion and garlic to the pan, and cook until fragrant and soft, about 5 minutes

8

Add the tomatoes, breaking them up by hand as you add them to the pot, and cook until a deep brick red, about 2 minutes more

9

Add the wine, and with a wooden spoon scrape up any browned bits that cling to the bottom of the pot

10

Add the remaining tomato liquid, beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves, and bring to a boil

11

Return the roast to the pot, nestle it in the liquid, cover and transfer pot to the oven

12

Cook until the roast is just tender, about 1 1/2 hours

13

Remove the lid and continue to cook, uncovered until tender about 1 hour more

14

Meanwhile, toss the onions, carrots, parsnips, and turnips with the olive oil, salt, and pepper

15

Spread out on a baking sheet in 1 layer

16

You may have to use 2 baking sheets

Once the roast comes out of the oven, raise the temperature to 450 degrees F

18

Roast the vegetables, turning about halfway through cooking, until caramelized and tender, about 30 to 45 minutes

19

Transfer the roast to a plate and cover loosely with foil

20

Skim the fat off the surface of the liquid and discard

21

Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until thickened

For a thicken sauce whisk in the cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil

23

(Test the thickness of the sauce by spooning some onto a plate and checking the consistency)
