This is my mother’s recipe that I beg her to make for pesach and Rosh hashana – it is mouthwatering and delicious. She’s an incredible cook but doesn’t write anything down or actually follow recipes properly. But I asked her nicely to try her best to write down all the steps so I can share.
Ingredients:
5 lb veal brisket
4 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped plus a few extra rosemary sprigs
1 inch fresh ginger, grated
6 cloves garlic
1/4 olive oil
2 tbsp freshly ground pepper
2 cup dry white wine
Approx 1 cup water
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Mix rosemary, 4 cloves minced garlic, grated ginger and olive oil. Set aside
Slice remaining 2 cloves of Garlic
Make slits ever few inches in brisket, add garlic slices and a sprig of rosemary. Rub marinade over roast.
Grind lots of pepper all over roast. Add about wine and water. Roast covered for about 21/2 to 3 hours.
Remove from oven. Heat to 425°F. Uncover and roast for another 20 to 30 minutes until nicely browned. Check so it doesn’t burn.
When cool cut thin slices against the grain.
