Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 pound of roast beef ( this is salom cut style it's has no fat and the meat is so lean) also known as eye of round beef
a good pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper
1 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. preheat the oven to 180c/350f. Get a good size casserole dish that your roast will fit into . The roast I always buy is salmon cut of beef , it's pure lean meat ,maybe with a little fat on the top ,but when cooked it just crisps up on top. place a sheet of tin foil over your casserole dish and place the beef on to that, season the beef with plenty of salt and pepper . place into the oven , and forget about it now after the first hour bring out of the oven and collect the juices from the meat ,just pour into a wee bowl . With a spoon scoop and dollop of butter on to the meat and spread over the top ,this will keep the meat tender . put the roast back in the oven to cook for an other hour . We like our roast well done ,if you prefer the meat a little pinker just put back in the over for half an hour..
  • 2. Over medium heat , put the juices from the meat into a small pot .Add to that about 1 & 1/2 cups of water , bring to the boil and stir in about 1/4 cup of Bisto it is a ready made gravy mix ,keep stirring until the gravy thickens up .
  • 3. Once the gravy has thicken ,turn the heat down to very low and put the lid on the pot.
  • 4. Once the roast is done ,take out of oven any juice still remaining just pour into the gravy and mix well with a wooden spoon . Start to carve the roast beef and serve with Yorkshire pudding veg and potatoes and a heavy serving of the delicious roast beef gravy ..and enjoy !!
