This pot roast has become one of our staple meals. So little effort with so big a payoff–love that! Sometimes I throw in a little package of “beef blend” fresh herbs, but it’s great with or without extras. I used to add some potatoes and carrots near the end of cooking, but now I make roasted potatoes with rosemary to go with the roast. Since I am allergic to onions (yes, it’s devastating) I substitute chopped carrots and add some asafoetida instead, and the roast is still wonderful.

Amy – I’m going to recommend you use the celery and onion. They cook down to practically sauce and the flavors are melded with the soy sauce and wine into something pretty awesome. Most of the people I know who don’t like onion and celery hardly notice it in the dish.

If I make this without the celery & onion will it still taste good? No one in my family will eat the celery or onion. I don’t need to season it any?

Mrs. Ergul – definitely, although I haven’t tried it yet.

Do you think this is a pressure cooker convertable recipe?
