Santa Fe Pot Roast - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2/3 cup all-purpose flour
    3 lbs boneless pork shoulder
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    1 cup chicken stock
    4 1/2 ounces green chilies, drained and rinsed
    2 cloves minced garlic
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 teaspoon coriander
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    4 cups baby carrots or 4 cups carrots, cut in 2 inch pieces
    6 small halve onions
    1/3 cup cold water
Preparation
    Spread 1/3 cup of the flour on a meat platter.
    Pat pork roast dry, roll in flour to coat, brushing off any excess.
    In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown pork for about 10 minutes.
    Turn pork with tongs or a wooden spoon not to pierce meat.
    Drain off any fat.
    Use a large slow cooker, I use the Rival 6 quart oval.
    Combine stock, chilies, garlic, oregano, cumin, corinader, salt, pepper, carrots and onions; cook meat, stock mixture and vegetables on Low for 10 to 12 hours or on High for 6 hours.
    Remove the meat and vegetables with a slotted spoon; cover with aluminum foil and keep warm in a 200 degree oven.
    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk remaining flour with cold water.
    Add the flour mixture to the slow cooker; cook on High for 15 to 20 minutes until juices thickened.
    Serve gravy over meat.
    I served this with a Garden Vegetable Rice.
