This recipe was given to me from my mother-in-law, a fantastic cook who I loved dearly. I learned how to cook from my mother, but when I tasted my mother-in-law's roast beef, it was so delicious I had her write down the recipe. That was 10 years ago. The original has gotten some stains along the way so I posted it here to record it. This version as been modified from the original.

My mother-in-law taught me to make this roast with sake. I think it tastes more refreshing with lemon. Even when its hot outside or when I don't feel like eating much, if I make this, it always gets eaten! I even end up eating the onions that were in the marinade and the lettuce that the meat was sitting on. It also works if you use a 100 g cut of meat. This roast keeps well. It's great for entertaining since you can make it the day before and just slice it the day of. It couldn't be easier. For 6-8 servings. Recipe by Kerii dooruko

Steps

1

Sprinkle salt, pepper, and garlic over the meat and let cool to room temperature before cooking. Preheat oven to 200ºC / 390ºF.
2

Add a little bit of oil to a pan and brown the surface of the meat.
3

Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes (adjust the cooking time based on the size of the roast and oven).
4

While it's cooking, mix the marinade in a plastic bag. (Put the onions in the bag as soon as you finish slicing.)
5

Once the meat from Step 3 is finished cooking, marinate using the marinade from Step 4 for 2-3 hours (up to a day). Adjust the marinating time to your preference.
6

Thinly slice and arrange on a plate lined with lettuce leaves.

This is my mother-in-law's handwritten recipe. The instructions only take up 4 lines. Its so simple. That's why I always wanted to make it, even back then.
