Sweet and Sour French Roast

Arrow


This roast is tender, the perfect balance of sweet and savory, a real crowd-pleaser. It tastes even better when made in advance and reheats incredibly well. Second cut brisket or top of rib work just as well. For more delicious main dishes perfect for your Rosh Hashanah menu, see our recipe roundup.

Directions

Prepare the French Roast

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Rub salt and pepper all over roast.

Add onion, carrots and celery root and sauté for about 15 minutes, until aromatic.

5.

Add tomato paste and rosemary and cook for five minutes on medium heat.

6.

Add wine to pan to deglaze and cook until wine reduces by half.
