Roast in an oven bag | Juicy oven bag roast recipe

Cooking in an oven bag is a true lifesaver for anyone who loves tender, melt-in-your-mouth meals but does not want to spend hours in the kitchen. Roast cooked in a baking sleeve turns out not only juicy and hearty, but also lower in calories. Since there is no frying or stewing in vegetable oil, the meat and vegetables cook in their own juices, preserving maximum vitamins, minerals, and beneficial micro- and macronutrients.

Adding the «Caucasian Shashlik» seasoning by CraftOil enhances the flavor and aroma of the meat and vegetables, turning this roast into a true culinary masterpiece. The seasoning contains 100% natural organic herbs and spices, free from preservatives and certified for quality.

Ingredients

To make tender, melt-in-your-mouth roast in an oven bag, you will need:

• 1 kg meat (any type, preferably bone-in);
• 10–11 medium potatoes;
• 1 large onion;
• 1 large carrot;
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise;
• 2 tsp «Caucasian Shashlik» seasoning;
• 3 tbsp ketchup (can be replaced with tomato paste);
• 1 tsp 9% vinegar;
• 2 tsp salt;
• 50 g butter (or 1 tbsp vegetable oil);

Step-by-step instructions

Wash the meat thoroughly, pat it dry with a kitchen towel, cut into medium-sized pieces, and marinate with vinegar, salt, and «Caucasian Shashlik» seasoning. Leave it to marinate for at least 2–3 hours in a sealed container in the refrigerator.

Meanwhile, peel the potatoes, onion, and carrot, wash them well, and cut them into cubes or slices (not too thin).

In a separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise and ketchup and mix until smooth.

Place the vegetables into the oven bag first, then add the marinated meat on top. Pour over the mayonnaise and ketchup mixture, add a piece of butter, tie the bag securely, and pierce it in a couple of places with a fork or needle.

Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for 1 hour.

Before serving, sprinkle the roast with freshly chopped herbs and/or add sour cream if desired.

Notes:

In addition to potatoes, onions, and carrots, you can add seasonal vegetables such as bell peppers, zucchini, tomatoes, eggplants, pattypan squash, green beans, garlic, and more. Mayonnaise can also be replaced with unsweetened yogurt.

Instead of butter, you can use camelina oil or sesame oil. For a richer and spicier flavor, add 1 teaspoon of black cumin seed cake flour along with the «Caucasian Shashlik» seasoning. This product, along with a wide selection of natural cold-pressed oils, is always available from the Ukrainian online store CraftOil.
