Roast In Apricot Mushroom Sauce


5-pound end of steak roast
2 onions, diced
3 cloves garlic, whole or diced
1 pound mushrooms, sliced
2/3 cup apricot preserves
1 cup dry red wine
½ cup water
¼ tsp pepper
2 bay leaves

Begin preparation at least 6 hours before serving. Preheat oven to 350.

Trim roast. Place vegetables, apricot preserves, liquid, and seasoning into a medium bowl. Mix until combines. Place meat in roasting pan and pour apricot mixture over it. Bake covered for 2 to 2 ½ hours.

Check roast during baking. You may want to turn it over so that flavor of juice gets well absorbed. When done, remove from oven and allow to cool. Refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.

One hour before serving, slice meat into ¼ inch slices. Preheat oven to 300. Return meat to sauce and reheat for 30 minutes. Serve warm.

NOTE: if serving on Shabbat, remove the meat from the fridge two hours before serving, let warm at room temperature.

USE: 1 covered roasting pan
YIELDS: 10-12 servings

Note: The laws of Shabbat rest mandate that all cooking and baking be done before Shabbat, and regulate food preparation done on Shabbat in other ways as well. For more information, see Food Preparation on Shabbat.

roast apricoat and mushroom sauce
when you use apricot it's better not to mix it with garlic, nor mushrooms nor red wine. Try this: use white wine instead of red one, add raisins instead of mushrooms and some nuts also. You may cook the onions with a small amount (coffeee or tea spoonfull) of sugar. It will be delicious!
Use Veal instead of red adult bovine meat, the effect will be even better!

roast
The recipe doesn't specify, I'd assume that any roast cut is ok.
