Authentic Roast Beef

This is easy and looks luxurious, so it's great for dinner parties when you're busy, with leftovers to be used in sandwiches the next day.

I recommend using a lean cut rather than a marbled cut for roast beef.
If you're afraid of overcooking the roast, check it a little early. The meat will continue cooking a little with residual heat if you cover it with aluminium foil. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Maria358
