ROSEMARY POT ROAST RECIPES

Steps:

• Generously season chuck roast with salt and pepper. Set Instant Pot to Sauté for 15 minutes, and heat oil.
• When oil is shimmering, add beef and sear on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove beef and add onion.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, rosemary, thyme, and tomato paste, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Stir in flour, then whisk in wine until combined. Bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
• Add broth, Worcestershire sauce, potatoes, and carrots. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Place beef on top of mixture. Secure lid, and set to Pressure Cook on High for 60 minutes.
• Follow manufacturer’s guide for quick release, making sure to wait until cycle is complete before unlocking and removing lid. Let beef rest in sauce for at least 10 minutes.
• Slice roast against grain.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. With a small, sharp knife, make 12 incisions 2 inches deep into the fleshy side of the leg. Insert a piece of garlic, half an anchovy and a small sprig of rosemary into each incision. Push them in with your little finger.
• Cream the butter with the remaining anchovies and smear it all over the meat. Sprinkle the meat generously with black pepper, place in a roasting pan and pour the wine around it. Tuck in any leftover sprigs of rosemary and pour the lemon juice over the meat.
• Roast in the oven for 15 minutes; lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees and roast for 1 hour more, basting from time to time with the juices. (Cook slightly longer, depending on how well done you like your meat.) Let rest in a warm place for at least 15 minutes before carving.
• Meanwhile, taste the juices, adding salt as needed. (It should not need much because of the anchovies.) If the gravy is too thin, simmer it in a skillet to thicken. If you choose, garnish the slices of lamb with sprigs of watercress. Serve with gravy and mashed potatoes or creamed eggplant.
