Gather loved ones around for a cozy winter roast beef with rich red wine gravy.
Ingredients:
  • 2kg (approx) brand beef rib roast
  • 18.20 gm olive oil, plus 18.20 gm extra
  • 40.00 ml flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • 20.00 ml fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 40.00 ml plain flour
  • 247.50 gm red wine
  • 255.00 gm beef stock
Instructions:
  • Remove beef from the fridge 30 minutes prior to cooking. Preheat the oven to 220°C or 200°C fan. Coat the meat generously with olive oil and transfer to a flameproof roasting pan. Roast for 30 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 180°C or 160°C fan.
  • Mix herbs, sea salt, and extra oil in a small bowl and add pepper to season. Spread herb mixture onto meat using the back of a wooden spoon for even coverage. Cook in the oven for an additional 50 mins for a medium result. Once cooked, let the meat rest for 30 mins covered loosely with foil before carving and removing the string.
  • Once the beef is cooked, move it to a warm platter. Keep about 2 tbsp of the fat in the roasting pan and discard the rest. Over medium heat, sprinkle flour into the pan. Stir with a wooden spoon for about 1 minute until the flour is lightly browned.
  • Mix wine and stock in a jug. Slowly pour into the pan while stirring until smooth (expect some meat residue, not flour lumps). Once everything is added, bring to boil, then simmer for 5 mins. Occasionally stir, scraping the bottom to release flavorful bits. Strain into a serving jug, season as desired.
