Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
10 cloves garlic, peeled
5 large shallots, cut lengthwise in half
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
2 teaspoons kosher (coarse) salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
1 beef rump or chuck roast (4 lb)
2 cups Progresso™ beef-flavored broth (from 32-oz carton)
1 1/2 cups water
4 cups cubed butternut squash (1 1/2 lb)
8 dried Calimyrna figs, quartered
1/2 cup port or other red wine
2 tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In 6-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook garlic and shallots in oil 3 to 4 minutes or until browned. Remove from pan with slotted spoon, reserving oil in pan.
  • In small bowl, mix rosemary, salt, pepper and sugar. Rub mixture on all sides of roast. Cook roast in reserved oil until browned on all sides. Add broth and 1 cup of the water. Scatter garlic and shallots around roast. Cover tightly; cook over medium-low heat 1 hour. Turn roast over; cook 1 hour. Turn roast again; cook covered 1 hour longer or until meat is tender, adding squash and figs and turning roast during last 30 minutes.
  • Remove roast, fruit and vegetables to platter. Skim fat from broth, if desired. Heat broth to boiling; boil 5 minutes. Stir in port; boil 5 minutes. Shake remaining 1/2 cup water and the flour in tightly covered container; gradually stir into sauce. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Serve gravy with pot roast.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less figs next time.
