Pot Roast and Horseradish Potatoes

Pot Roast

Ingredients

• ¼ C flour
• 1 tsp salt
• pepper
• 3 to 5 lb chuck roast
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 big onions, cut into large chunks
• optional: potatoes, cut into eighths
• optional: carrots, scraped and cut in pieces about 2 inches long
• 1 (12 oz) can beef broth

Directions

Rub meat with salt and pepper, then dust with flour and pound into meat with edge of plate.

Brown meat on both sides in the hot oil.

Put meat into a pot with a tight lid that can go into the oven. The meat should lie flat in the pan. Add the onions and cook for about 10 minutes. Add a can of beef broth, cover and cook in a 325 degree oven for two hours.

After two hours, add potatoes and carrots. If liquid level is low, add a little water or some more broth and cook for another 30 minutes. Cook a little longer if you like potatoes and carrots to be really soft.
