Impress with a flavorful St. Patrick's Day corned beef feast, complete with tender veggies and creamy sauce.
Ingredients:
  • 4 pounds corned beef brisket, or more to taste
  • 2 quarts water, or as needed to cover
  • 1 medium head cabbage, cored and cut into 6 wedges
  • 12 small red potatoes, halved
  • 1 pound small white onions, peeled
  • 6 large carrots, peeled and cut in chunks
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 0.5 cup reduced-fat sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons coarse Dijon mustard
Instructions:
  • Prepare the corned beef and vegetables: Add the corned beef to a 6-quart Dutch oven and cover with water, leaving a 2-inch margin. Boil the water, skimming off any fat that rises to the surface. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 2 hours.
  • Surround the beef with cabbage, potatoes, onions, and carrots in the pot, bring to a boil again. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until veggies are soft and beef is fork-tender, which should take around 40 minutes. Place the beef on a platter. Use a slotted spoon to take out the vegetables and place them around the beef. Save 1 1/2 cups of the cooking liquid for the sauce.
  • Prepare the sauce by melting butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until dissolved and bubbling, about 1 minute. Stir in reserved cooking liquid and vinegar; cook until sauce slightly thickens, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in sour cream and mustard.
  • Present the sauce with the corned beef and vegetables.
