1 4 pound French roast
4 mediums Onions, sliced
1 inch bag (1#) baby carrots, cut half if large
to taste Black pepper
to taste Thyme leaves, dried
to taste Dried bay leaves
1 bottle burgundy wine
1 can (6oz.) tomato paste
Preparation
1

2
Pour whole bottle of wine into pot - don't worry, all the alcohol evaporates. bring to boil, lower to simmer and cook for about 3 hours - until meat is soft. This is a top of the stove recipe. When meat is done, remove from pot, add can of tomato paste, mix and simmer til combined. Return meat to pot and refrigerate overnight. Much easier to cut in slices next day when cold. Reheat to serve. Delicious and very easy, two of my requirements.
