Directions:Preheat oven to 325º
Dredge pot roast in flour. Discard excess flour. Heat olive oil in large oven-proof frying pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until hot. Brown pot roast in hot oil, about 5 minutes per side. Remove pot roast from frying pan.
Combine water and vinegar. Add vinegar mixture to frying pan; cook over medium heat scraping up brown beef bits. Stir in salt. Return pot roast to frying pan; sprinkle with pepper, as desired.
Distribute onions, shallots and dates around beef. Cover tightly and bake 2 - 2-1/2 hours or until tender, turning roast often. Remove roast to carving board. Simmer liquid and vegetables over medium to medium-high heat to desired consistency.
Carve roast across the grain into thin slices; arrange on serving platter. Spoon some of the sauce over slice roast; sprinkle with parsley. Garnish with endive and onion slices. Serve beef with remaining sauce.
