in

The pot roast with potatoes, as well as with onions and rosemary with a small amount of tomato paste and a splash of red wine, is a perfect dish for cold winter days, those comforting dishes with a robust flavor!
This meat main dish is tasty and satisfying, being a hearty dish excellent during cold winter days.
What meat to use for pot roast? Undoubtedly beef, but veal is also a type of meat suitable for a longer cooking.
What vegetables to add to the pot roast for a complete and satisfying preparation?Essential are potatoes like onions, but also celery and carrots for a sauté, perhaps in large quantities and cut into big chunks, are recommended. The potatoes during cooking will make the preparation creamy and decidedly comforting.
I also suggest other preparations with a strong and very good taste like:
