Heart Breaker Roast

• Roast
• 4 -5 lbs rump roast
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 2 cups dried prunes
• 2 cups water
• Sauce
• 1/2 cup cider vinegar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. Preheat a heavy deep pan on medium-high heat.
2. Add oil, and brown roast on all sides until a golden crust forms.
3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add prunes and 2 cups of water.
4. Cover and reduce heat to simmer for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
5. Remove meat from liquid and place on a platter.
6. If you wish, you can strain out the prune pieces, but save the juices!
7. Stir in vinegar, water, sugar, cloves and cinnamon. Cook rapidly until a thick sauce is formed.
8. Pour sauce over and around meat.
9. I like to serve garlic mashed potatoes, and green beans with this dish.
