Here’s a classic Roast Beef recipe—juicy, flavorful, and perfect for a family meal or sandwiches:
🥩 Roast Beef (Oven Method)
🧾 Ingredients
- 1–1.5 kg beef roast (sirloin, ribeye, or top round)
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil or butter
- 4–5 garlic cloves (crushed or sliced)
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried rosemary or thyme
- Optional: mustard or Worcestershire sauce
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the meat
- Pat beef dry with paper towels.
- Rub with oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs.
- Let it sit for 30 minutes (or overnight in fridge for deeper flavor).
2. Sear (optional but recommended)
- Heat a pan on high.
- Sear beef on all sides until browned.
- This locks in flavor.
3. Roast
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Place beef in a roasting tray.
- Roast for about:
- 20 min per 500g (medium doneness guide)
- Use a meat thermometer if possible:
- 55–60°C = medium-rare
- 65–70°C = medium
4. Rest the meat
- Let it rest for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
- This keeps it juicy.
🌟 Tips
- Always slice against the grain for tenderness
- Add carrots, potatoes, and onions to roast alongside
- Use pan juices for gravy
