Roast beef with steamed veg and roast potatoes

It's very difficult to get good quality organic beef in Southern Spain so I took advantage of my visit to Leeds last weekend to get a joint and make a traditional English Sunday lunch. Great for a special meal - ours was celebrating family time. Here's the recipe 😊
Roast beef with steamed veg and roast potatoes
It's very difficult to get good quality organic beef in Southern Spain so I took advantage of my visit to Leeds last weekend to get a joint and make a traditional English Sunday lunch. Great for a special meal - ours was celebrating family time. Here's the recipe 😊
Steps
- 1
Put the beef in a sealable freezer bag and pour in the wine. Seal and leave overnight (or for a few hours if you want to cook it today)
- 2
Next day pour the wine and meat juice into a pan, swish the bag out with a little water. This is the beginning of what will in the end be your delicious gravy....
- 3
Cut the extra fat, mix.with fresh rosemary, a tsp. of fresh salt and a few generous grinds of black pepper and scrub the joint with your hands all over
- 4
Put the meat in a hot oven (200°C) for an hour, then turn down to 120°C and leave for another half hour
- 5
During the last half hour get your veg ready - peel and boil potatoes for 20 mins, strain. Cut beans and broccoli into bite size pieces.
- 6
Put water in the bottom pan and stack the steamers on top. Boil for just 5 minutes then drain the water into the gravy pan
- 7
And put that on a moderate heat with the onion, bay leaf and garlic. Once bubbling put heat at minimum
- 8
Take the meat out
- 9
Put the tasty bits from the tray into the gravy pan
- 10
Pour the juices into a bowl
- 11
and put the joint in a serving dish. Cover and leave to rest while you see to the trimmings
- 12
Carefully spoon the fat from the top of the juices into the beef roasting tin. Spread around, add the boiled potatoes, stir around a bit more, and put in the oven for 10 minutes at 22°
- 13
Pour the remaining juices 8nto the gravy
- 14
And add the water from the steaming pan too. Bring to boil and add the gravy granules and 1 teaspoon of corn flour diluted in a little bit of red wine
- 15
Heat two serving dishes by boiling a kettle and pouring hot water in both. Pour the water down the sink, dry and put veg in one dish
- 16
And the potatoes in the other one
- 17
Turn off the oven and put veg and potatoes in to keep warm while you carve the beef. Drain the gravy through a seive and pour a little over the meat. Put the rest in a jug. Enjoy with the rest of that bottle of red wine you uncorked hours ago!!!
