a Jewish holiday classic... I’ve made this for Rosh Hashanah and Passover. Toss in some potatoes to round out the menu.

ingredients

  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 2 medium garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 pound baby carrots
  • 5 oz mushrooms, sliced (about 2 to 2 1/2 cups)
  • 2 1/2 pounds raw lean beef brisket, trimmed (use brisket from flat half)
  • 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 3/4 tsp table salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 Tb fresh lemon juice
  • 2 Tb sugar

directions

  • 1

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

  • 2

    Spread onion slices and garlic on bottom of a nonstick roasting pan; top with carrots and mushrooms. Arrange beef over vegetables.

  • 3

    In a mixing bowl, combine tomatoes, paprika, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, lemon juice, and sugar; stir to dissolve sugar.

  • 4

    Pour tomato mixture over brisket and vegetables; tightly cover with a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Roast for 2 hours and then remove from oven; uncover, stir and use pan juices to baste meat. Return to oven and roast for about 1 hour more, basting every 15 minutes.

  • 5

    Remove pan from oven and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Serve meat and vegetables with sauce spooned over top.

  • 6

    Yields about 3 ounces of beef plus 3/4 cup vegetables and sauce per serving.

notes

7 pointsplus per serving Let cool before slicing. If making in advance, don't cook all the way through or meat will become too tough upon re-heating.
