- Advance preparation - 1 to 2 weeks ahead: Trim the meat of as much fat as possible. It using a rolled roast, cut the strings to get at the fat and retie the roast afterwards. Use a one gallon zip-lock freezer bag to marinate the meat and you will not have to keep turning the roast. Tie the peppercorns, cloves and juniper berries in a cheesecloth bag so which they can easily retrieved. Put half of the minced vegetables in the freezer bag with the bagged spices, cinnamon sticks, thyme and bay leaves. Place the meat in the bag, top with the remaining vegetables and pour in the wine and vinegar. Seal the bag, squeezing out as much air as possible. Place the bag in a bowl. If necessary, stuff empty spaces in the bowl with wadded up newspaper to force the marinade to cover the meat. Chill for at least one week - two weeks is better.
- Cooking - 3 to 6 hrs before serving: Strain and reserve the marinade from the meat and vegetables. Pick out and reserve the bay leaves, Throw away the bagged spices and cinnamon sticks. Pat the meat dry with paper towels. Heat the oil over high heat in a heavy casserole just large sufficient to hold the meat. Brown the meat in the oil on all sides and set aside. Pour off all but 2 Tbsp. of the oil and reduce the heat to medium. Add in the vegetables from the marinade and cook till just soft - 3 to 5 min. Stir in the sugar. Place the meat on the vegetables. Add in the reserved marinade and three of the bay leaves. Bring to a simmer and place in a preheated 350 oven for one and a half hrs.
- Remove the roast from the casserole and set aside. Skim any accumulated fat from the juices. Spoon the vegetables and some of the juices into a food processor or possibly blender and puree them. Transfer the juices to a bowl.
- In the casserole over medium high heat, heat the butter. Add in the flour and cook for 1 minute to make a rioux. Gradually add in some of the cooking juices, whisking to make a smooth paste. Add in the remaining juices and coo, stirring, to make a thin gravy. Mix the brown sugar and spices together. Stir the spice mix into the gravy. Return the vegetables to the casserole and bring the sauce to a boil.
- Return the roast to the sauce, return to a simmer and cook till tender - about 45 min longer.
- Remove the roast. Whisk the lowfat sour cream into the sauce. Simmer for 3 to 5 min. Taste the sauce for seasoning and correct with salt, pepper, sugar or possibly even vinegar. The sauce should be spicy, sweet and sour.
- Return the roast to the casserole and keep hot till serving time.
- Serving: Remove the roast and carve into serving slices. Serve the meat napped with a little sauce. Pass the remaining sauce at the table.
- NOTES :This recipe is a combination of several I have tried. It owes most to an early 1990s recipe from the Boston Globe and a much older one from the Minneapolis Tribune 0
