Ingredients

  • 2 3/4 pounds rump roast trimmed
  • 2 onions cut into wedges
  • 2 carrots peeled, chopped
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 bouquet garni
  • 10 whole cloves
  • 2 pounds baby potatoes
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves chopped

Method

  • Place rump roast in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan along with onions, carrots, vinegar, brown sugar, bouquet garni and cloves. Add enough water to just cover beef. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 1 hour - 1 hour 30 mins, until tender. Let cool in braising liquid.
  • Cook potatoes in boiling salted water for 10-15 mins, or until tender. Drain and toss with butter and parsley. Season to taste. Serve with sliced beef.
