SERVINGS: 8

CATEGORY: Lower Fat

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 30 min. + cooling Bake: 2-3/4 hours

Ingredients:

  • 1 boneless beef rump roast (about 3 pounds), tied
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 3/4 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup reduced-sodium beef broth
  • 1/3 cup prepared horseradish, drained
  • 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches)
  • 3 whole cloves
  • 16 pearl onions
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1-1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
  • 16 baby carrots
  • 4 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons cold water

Directions:

Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, brown meat in oil. Drain and remove from the heat. In a large saucepan, combine the cranberries, water and sugar. Cook and stir over medium heat until cranberries pop and liquid is slightly thickened, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat.
    Add the broth and horseradish; pour over meat. Place cinnamon stick and cloves in a double thickness of cheesecloth; bring up corners of cloth and tie with kitchen string to form a bag. Add to Dutch oven. Cover and bake at 325° for 2 hours.
    Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, bring 6 cups water to a boil. Add pearl onions; boil for 3 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water; peel and set aside. Add sweet potatoes to Dutch oven. Cover and cook 15 minutes longer. Add carrots and onions; cover and cook 30-40 minutes more or until vegetables and meat are tender. Remove meat and vegetables; keep warm. Discard spice bag.
    Cool pan juices for 10 minutes; transfer to a blender. Cover and process until smooth; return to pan. Combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Gradually whisk into pan juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with meat and vegetables. Yield: 8 servings.
