List of Ingredients

1 4-5 lb. bottom round roast
3 T. margarine
2 lg. onions, whole
8 med. carrots, sliced
8 lg. potatoes, cubed
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 c. corn starch
water
salt and pepper, to taste



Recipe

Trim excess fat from beef roast. On waxed paper, coat roast with flour.

In 5 qt. cast iron pot, over high heat, melt 3 T. margarine, and cook roast until well browned on all sides.

Add enough water to cover roast. Add onions, garlic, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low and cover and simmer 2 1/2-3 hrs. until roast is fork-tender, turning roast occasionally. Add water as you go if it gets down too low.

About 1/2 hr. before roast is done, add carrots and potatoes.

In a cup, mix cornstarch with 1 c. cool water. Stir it into the liquid with the pot roast. Add additional water if necessary.
