Steps
- 1Pat beef roast dry and season generously with salt and pepper; heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and sear roast on all sides until deeply browned.
- 2Remove roast and set aside, then add chopped onions, carrots, and celery to the pot, cooking until softened.
- 3Stir in tomato paste and flour, cooking for 1 minute, then deglaze with red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
- 4Return the roast to the pot, pour in beef broth, and add thyme and bay leaves.
- 5Bring liquid to a simmer, then cover and transfer to a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C) for 2 hours.
- 6Add quartered potatoes to the pot and continue baking for another 1-1.5 hours, or until beef and vegetables are fork-tender; remove bay leaves and thyme sprigs before serving.
