2
tablespoons all-purpose flour  
Place the pot roast in the room-temperature Dutch oven. Cook over medium  
heat, turning about every 6 minutes, until all sides are brown. Browning  
is important because it helps develop the rich flavor of the roast. If the  
roast sticks to the Dutch oven, loosen it carefully with a fork or turner.  
Remove the Dutch oven from the heat.  
Sprinkle the salt and pepper over the roast. Spread the horseradish on top  
of the roast. Pour the water into the Dutch oven along the side of the  
roast, leaving the horseradish on top. Heat to boiling over high heat.  
Once water is boiling, reduce heat just enough so water bubbles gently.  
Cover and cook 2 hours. If more water is needed to keep the Dutch oven  
from becoming dry, add it 2 tablespoons at a time.  
After the roast has been cooking for 1 1/2 hours, scrub the potatoes  
thoroughly with a vegetable brush, but do not peel. Cut each potato in  
half. Peel the carrots, and cut each into 4 equal lengths. Peel the onions  
and cut each in half. Add the potatoes, carrots and onions to the Dutch  
oven. Cover and cook about 1 hour or until the roast and vegetables are  
tender when pierced with a fork. Vegetables that are in the cooking liquid  
will cook more quickly, so you may want to move some of the vegetables  
from the top of the roast into the liquid to cook all uniformly.  
Remove the roast and vegetables to a warm ovenproof platter or pan; keep  
warm by covering with aluminum foil or placing in oven with the  
temperature set at 200ยบ or lower for no longer than 10 minutes. Prepare  
Pot Roast Gravy.  
While keeping the gravy warm over low heat, cut the roast into 1/4-inch  
slices. Serve with the gravy and vegetables.
