Beef roast - use moisture for a cheaper, tougher cut

Use an oven safe dish, slightly bigger than the cut of beef

I use parchment or aluminum foil so the pan stays clean. I cooked the roast as recommended on the wrapper

Start root vegetables in cold water, then bring to the boil. Ready when fork tender

Purple yams taste the same as the orange ones!

To thicken gravy add flour to water and shake to avoid lumps. I use cornstarch for gluten free.

Another thickening trick is to add the flour or cornstarch to the oil left in the pan from browning the roast.

Drippings from the roast, and the roasted garlic

Add the flour mixture slowly, while stirring, bring to a full boil

I added colour and extra flavour

Finished!
