Rinderbraten
Rinderbraten is a delicious dish from German cuisine. It refers to a traditional pot roast made with beef. The beef is usually marinated and then slow-cooked until it becomes tender and flavorful. Rinderbraten is often served with rich gravy and accompanied by a variety of side dishes such as roasted potatoes, vegetables, or dumplings.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef roast (preferably a cut like chuck or round)
- 1 cup red wine
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 onions sliced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 sprig rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Season the beef roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
- In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef roast on all sides until nicely seared. Remove the roast from the pot and set it aside.
- In the same pot, add the sliced onions and minced garlic. Sauté them until they become translucent and fragrant.
- Stir in the tomato paste and flour, cooking for about a minute to remove the raw taste of the flour.
- Slowly pour in the red wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
- Return the beef roast to the pot and add the beef broth, Dijon mustard, bay leaves, and rosemary sprig. The liquid should come about halfway up the sides of the roast.
- Cover the pot with a lid and transfer it to the preheated oven. Allow it to cook for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef becomes tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
- Once cooked, remove the pot from the oven and carefully take out the beef roast. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- While the roast is resting, you can strain the cooking liquid and onions to create a rich gravy. Simply discard the bay leaves and rosemary sprig, then blend the remaining ingredients until smooth.
- Slice the beef roast across the grain and serve it with the gravy on top. You can pair it with your favorite side dishes like roasted potatoes or vegetables.
