Roast

Here I go slacking off again. Sorry this post is too late for Sunday dinner, but here is my recipe for pot-roast for future reference...

What You Need

1 Beef Roast (or other red meat roast, my parents prefer buffalo...)
2-4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 package baby carrots (or 6-8 carrots, peeled and cubed)
1 onion, sliced into medium-small chunks
1 package Liptons Onion Soup Mix
1 c water
Salt, and Pepper to taste

(2-3T cornstarch for gravy)

Directions

Place roast in crock-pot, surround with veggies, sprinkle with Soup mix, and drizzle with water. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. then remove roast and let stand for 5-10 minutes, remove veggies and pour roast juices into a medium sized sauce pan. Cooking the roast juices at a medium high heat, add 2-3 T cornstarch, mixed with enough water to make it dissolve and runny, stirring constantly. My parents would always serve this recipe with another side of veggies, but I find it fine as is. You could also serve with some homemade bread or rolls. Enjoy!
