Beef with Mushroom Gravy
Sep. 26th, 2010 06:47 pmThis beef roast serves a lot, freezes very well, and requires a whopping three ingredients. It does take a while to cook, but it's 99% passive cooking. And it's really hard to mess up.
Specialized Equipment: You'll need a roasting rack. If you haven't got one, you can improvise (as I did today when I realized mine had gone astray a couple of apartments ago) with forks--they must be 100% metal, and you put them upside-down (so the curving tines hold the meat up) next to each other--four will do for a roast this size.
Ingredients:
4-6 lb. beef rump roast
1 envelope instant onion soup mix
2-4 10.75 oz. cans cream of mushroom soup*
*In the US, Campbell's sells a 26-oz. "Family Size" can of mushroom soup that will suit most roasts.
( simple to make in oven or crock pot )
