ASADO NEGRO (VENEZUELAN-STYLE ROAST BEEF)
This traditional Venezuelan roast is extra tender owing to the ample amount of tangy caramel-wine sauce that helps seal in the delicious juices. Marinate the beef overnight for the best flavor in this slow-roasted special occasion dish. Serve the traditional way over rice or fried plantains to absorb every drop of the smooth, syrupy sauce.

Steps:
- Using a sharp paring knife, slice incisions on all sides of roast and insert the slices of garlic.
- Combine celery, leeks, onions, bay leaves, olive oil and Worcestershire sauce in a sealable plastic bag. Add roast, pressing out as much air as possible and seal bag.
- Place in refrigerator for at least three hours, or ideally overnight.
- In a deep pot over medium high heat, combine sugar and 1/2 cup water, stir infrequently and cook for about 15 minutes or until a dark caramel color is reached.
- Carefully add wine, vinegar and brown sugar (hot caramel will splatter) and cook, stirring just until there are no sugar lumps in mixture, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Remove beef from marinade (reserving marinade) and season with salt and pepper all over. Heat an oven safe medium-sized pot with a lid (large enough for roast and vegetables) over high heat.
- Add butter and vegetable oil. Sear meat over high heat until brown on all sides. Remove to a plate.
- Remove beef from marinade (reserving marinade) and season with salt and pepper all over.
- Heat an oven safe medium-sized pot with a lid (large enough for roast and vegetables) over high heat.
- Add butter and vegetable oil. Sear meat over high heat until brown on all sides. Remove to a plate.
- Remove from the oven, baste beef with juices, reduce oven temperature to 275°F and cook for another 1 1/2 hours, basting every 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 20 minutes. Place roast on cutting board and slice into ½-inch thick pieces.
- Place all cooked vegetables (but not sauce) in an ovenproof dish and arrange beef slices over them and set aside.
- Taste sauce, which should be of an almost syrupy consistency. If not, place in a pan and reduce over low heat until it reaches a syrupy consistency.
- Taste and re-season with salt and pepper if needed. Remove bay leaves from sauce pour over beef slices.
- Return to the oven for 30 minutes at 275°F. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.

VENEZUELAN ASADO NEGRO WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES AND TOSTONES
In Venezuela's capital city, Caracas, large cuts of beef are roasted in a rich caramel sauce whose sweetness is tempered by vinegar. The result is beef cloaked in a sauce as dark as an ink pot bobbing in the middle of the ocean on a moonless night. Our version captures the traditional essence with a flavorful reduction of red wine, demi-glace, and Worcestershire sauce. We serve it with the classic accompaniment of twice-fried plantain chips for a delicious mixture of new and familiar flavors.

Peel plantain and cut into 1/2" slices. Trim zucchini ends and cut on an angle into 1/4" slices. Trim and quarter radishes. Peel and halve shallot.

ASADO NEGRO
Here, we have a raggedy number out of Venezuela called asado negro. It requires a fat roast of beef that is simmered for a long time in dark caramel, its sweetness tempered by vinegar. The result is sticky and unctuous beneath a cloak of peppers, onions and leeks. It looks mysterious and bold on the plate and at the start of a New York winter can conjure some degree of Latin American humidity and joy. Asado negro has its primary home in Caracas, where it is often served during the holidays, alongside fried sweet plantains and white rice, with perhaps a tart green salad for contrast. The meat is napped in blackness that comes not from fire or smoke but from the absorption of all colors into one, a color as deep as space itself. It is beef the color of a velvet dinner jacket seen across a dark lawn at midnight. It makes mockery of pot roast. And, as we shall see, it is exceedingly simple to make.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Combine the white sugar and 1 cup of water in a heavy saucepan and cook, without stirring, over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves and turns dark caramel, 8 to 10 minutes. Carefully add the brown sugar, vinegar and wine, and cook, stirring, until all the caramel has melted. Set aside.
- Heat a Dutch oven large enough to hold the meat over medium-high heat. When hot, add the canola oil and butter. When these begin to shimmer and foam, sear the roast on all sides. Transfer the meat to a platter and set aside.
- Add the garlic, onion, celery, leeks and bay leaves to the Dutch oven and cook over medium-high heat until they have softened and almost begun to brown. Add the Worcestershire and soy sauces and stir to incorporate, then return the meat to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Cover with the bell-pepper slices and pour the caramel sauce over the top. Cover, place in the oven and cook for approximately 2½ hours - basting and turning the meat every 45 minutes - until it is very tender.
- Remove the meat and allow it to stand on a platter, tented in foil, for at least 30 minutes. If the sauce is not syrupy and thick, remove the vegetables (discard the bay leaves) and arrange them around the meat, then place the Dutch oven, uncovered, over medium-high heat and allow the sauce to reduce.
- When the sauce is ready, slice the meat and return it, along with the vegetables, to the sauce and reheat in the oven or, covered, on the stove. Check the seasoning and garnish with chopped cilantro.
