- 4 lb beef roast
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 T. basil, dried or 1/2 cup fresh
- 1 t. dried oregano
- salt
- pepper
- 1 large can Italian tomatoes with basil
- or one pack dried tomatoes
- one onion, chopped
- one 750 ml bottle Italian red wine
-
- Cut slits in the roast and insert pieces of garlic and onions, brown roast
- over med-high heat. Add all ingredients and enough water to cover, cook
- 3-4 hours until tender, covered over low heat. Reduce sauce to two cups.
-
- Note: the better the wine, the better the roast. Try heavy Barbaresco if
- willing to pay the price. Reduce the cooking liquid at the end and serve
- over polenta-wonderful!
