Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup slivered almonds
5 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
4 celery ribs, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
5 large cloves garlic, finely minced
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh sage
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
8 ounces sweet fennel sausage, casings removed
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 cup Calvados, or white wine
6 cups cooked wild rice
4 cups cooked white rice
20 dried apricot halves, quartered
12 dried pitted prunes, halved
Unsalted butter, for baking dish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spread almonds on a baking pan, and toast until golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove pan from oven, and set almonds aside to cool.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large saute pan set over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 7 minutes.
  • Increase heat to high, and add rosemary and sage; season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until vegetables are golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat; stir in parsley. Transfer vegetables to a large bowl, and set aside. Return pan to heat.
  • Crumble sausage, separating meat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to saute pan. Add sausage, and cook, stirring and breaking up meat until well browned, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Transfer sausage to bowl with reserved vegetables. Return pan to heat.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked wild rice or microwaveable packets.
  • For a more flavorful roast, marinate the beef in the almond-soy sauce mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, cook the beef until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium.
  • To make the sauce, use a high-quality soy sauce and almond butter. You can also add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup for a sweeter sauce.
  • Serve the beef roast with steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

This almond beef roast with wild rice is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the wild rice is nutty and aromatic. The almond-soy sauce adds a unique and delicious flavor to the dish. Serve this roast with your favorite sides and enjoy!
