Рецепт Filipino Style Pot Roast in Creamy Mushroom Gravy
This type of dish traditionally uses ox tongue but since it’s not for everybody, new ways of making this dish was created like the use of topside or silver side of beef. Commonly this pot roast is served on special occasion where buffet dining is present, I saw this almost every time when I am invited to such occasion back in the Philippines. Having said that it’s not a doubt that this dish is usually served on special occasions and since it’s nearly Christmas time don’t you think this is a good idea to serve this on Noche Buena?
How about you do you have any ideas on what to serve on Christmas Day?
