Can’t stop looking at you  ~ One Direction

You’re looking at the little black dress of American cuisine.  Roast Beef is perfect for almost every occasion.  It’s not gaudy, it’s not bland, it will be noticed for all the right reasons.

Just like the little black dress this is simple elegance.  You can adorn it however you wish.  It works well with red wine or sweet tea or anything in between.  So if you are standing at your refrigerator like you do at your closet wonder what you’re going to wear or prepare, you can never go wrong with a little black dress or roast beef.  Do enjoy!!!

*Recipe inspiration comes from the Silver Spoon.

Ingredients (Serves 6)

5 tbsp olive oil
2 1/4 lbs. carrots, sliced
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 sprig fresh thyme, chopped plus more for garnishing
pinch of ground nutmeg
1 1/4 lbs. chuck roast
2 tbsp brandy
4 to 5 celery leaves
salt and pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 250°. Heat 3 tbsp of oil over medium heat. Add the carrots, garlic, and thyme, and cook until lightly browned. Season with the salt and pinch of nutmeg, transfer to a dish and keep warm.

Transfer the beef to a roasting pan, place the carrots around the roast and sprinkle with the celery leaves.

Drizzle the remaining 2 tbsp of olive oil over the roast and carrots and bake for 2 hours or until carrots are caramelized. If the carrots get caramelized before the roast is tender, remove the carrots and continue cooking until the beef is tender, then add the carrots back and heat through. (This could take up to 30 to 45 minutes depending on the thickness of your roast.) Remove the meat from the roasting pan, carve into slices and season with pepper. Transfer to a serving dish surrounded by carrots.

Enjoy!

    Did somebody say brandy? And carmelized carrots? This sounds fantastic, Tammy! Better than a little black dress, if you ask me.:)

About Me

I love food! I read cookbooks like they were novels. I get giddy in a farmer’s market. I find a chicken in a pot surrounded by carrots, onion, and celery a thing of beauty. My favorite sound is Mmmmmmmm! Read More…
