Number Of Ingredients 15

5 pounds beef round roast
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
½ cup water
½ teaspoon dried sage
½ teaspoon dried mint
1 medium onion, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
⅛ teaspoon seasoning salt
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
½ cup cold water
¼ teaspoon dried sage
¼ teaspoon dried mint

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Season the roast with salt and pepper to taste. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the outside of the roast on all sides in the butter. After the roast is browned, add 1/2 cup water to the pan, and sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of sage, and 1/2 teaspoon of mint onto the roast. Place onion and garlic into the pan if desired, and season with seasoning salt and red pepper flakes, if using.
  • Cover the pot, and place the roast in the oven for 2 to 3 hours depending on how well done you prefer the meat to be. 2 hours for rare, and 3 for well done. Removed finished roast to a pan to keep warm.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium skillet. Whisk flour into melted butter until smooth. Remove from heat, and stir in 1/2 cup cold water. Mix until a smooth paste is formed. Return to medium heat, and season with remaining sage and mint. Stir in the liquid from the roasting pan, and boil, stirring constantly until the gravy is thickened. Remove from heat. Slice the roast and serve with gravy poured over the meat.

Try this simple, flavour-packed sauce with top quality beef - it's best carved into thick slices

Provided by Stephen Terry

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ¼kg piece centre-cut beef fillet , trimmed
2 tbsp sunflower oil
1 tbsp olive oil
8 shallots , peeled and finely sliced
20 button mushrooms , finely sliced
75ml sherry vinegar
1 bottle fruity red wine , such as Rioja
1l good-quality beef stock
25g cold butter

Steps:

  • To make the sauce, heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the shallots and mushrooms, then fry for about 10 mins until golden and caramelised. Pour in the vinegar, then simmer until almost evaporated. Add the red wine, then simmer until almost evaporated. Add the beef stock, bring to the boil, then reduce by two-thirds. Pass the mixture through a fine sieve, then keep warm until ready to serve. Can be made the day before and reheated.
  • Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Season the beef generously with salt and pepper. Heat the sunflower oil in a large ovenproof frying pan on a high heat. Add the beef, then sear for 10 mins, turning, until browned all over. Transfer to the oven, then roast for approximately 20 mins, turning after 10 mins. This will give you beef that is medium rare; for medium, roast for an extra 5 mins. Allow the beef to rest on a rack, loosely covered in foil, for 10 mins, then slice into 6 thick slices. Add all juices from the beef to the sauce, then gently heat the sauce up and whisk in the butter.

Tips:

  • To ensure the beef is cooked to your desired doneness, use a meat thermometer. For medium-rare, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C). For medium, cook to 145°F (63°C). For medium-well, cook to 155°F (68°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the beef by making a small cut into the center. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare, and more brown for medium and medium-well.
  • Let the beef rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
  • To make a quick and easy pan sauce, deglaze the pan with a little bit of red wine or beef broth. Add some chopped shallots or mushrooms, and simmer for a few minutes until the sauce has reduced and thickened.
  • If you're short on time, you can cook the beef in a slow cooker. Set the slow cooker to low and cook the beef for 8-10 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.

Conclusion:

Roast fillet of beef is a classic dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With its tender meat and flavorful sauces, it is sure to impress your guests.
