How To Make swedish pot roast

  • Step 1
    Blend nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and pepper together and rub over entire roast.
  • Step 2
    Brown the meat on all sides in the oil at medium-high heat.
  • Step 3
    Add all remaining ingredients(except cornstarch)to the pot. If using a pressure cooker,cook for 35 minutes after pressure builds. If cooking on top of the stove,cover and simmer for about 4 hours until very tender. Remove the meat and bay leaves from the pot and thicken the gravy with some cornstarch mixed in a small amount of water.
  • Step 4
    I serve this with wide noodles.
