Hi,
Today I suggesting a delicious roast beef!
Let's get hands on :)


Ingredients

  • 1.5 kg quality topside of beef
  • 2 medium onions
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 sticks celery
  • 1 bulb garlic
  • 1 small bunch fresh thyme, rosemary, bay or sage, or a mixture
  • olive oil
  • sea salt
  • freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Before doing anything remember to preheat your oven to 240°C/475°F...

There is no need to peel the vegetables, so you just need give them a wash and roughly chop them.
Then put the veg, garlic and herbs into the middle of a large roasting tray and drizzle with olive oil.

Prepare a small bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper and some thyme. Mix it all together!
After rub it all over the meat. Place the beef on top of the vegetables.

Place the roasting tray in the oven and turn the heat down to 200°C/400°F.
Cook the meat for 1 hour for medium beef, 5 to 15 minutes less for medium-rare and leave it 10 to 15 minutes more for well done beef.

Now you can serve this with some roast potatos and veggies, and / or some white basmati rice!
Enjoy!

Pork Tenderlion wrapped in bacon and sprinkled with fine herbs.
This is a delicious, easy and quick to do dish.
You can't go wrong with this dish!


Ingredients

1 pound pork tenderloin
3-4 slices of bacon
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon brown sugar (or your favourite sweet)
1 teaspoon herb or spice, dried thyme, fresh rosemary or ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon any mustard
lots of freshly cracked black pepper

Preperation

1. Preheat your oven to 500ºF. Turn on your convection fan if you have one. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Carefully slice off and remove the ‘silverskin’ (white coating) from the tenderloin, leaving any visible fat in place.
In a small bowl whisk together the brown sugar, mustard and your preferred herb or spice.
Using your hands, dip the tenderloin and coat well.
Season it with pepper, then fold under the small end of the tenderloin so it doesn’t overcook.
Wrap the bacon all around, as tight as you can, with a slight overlap trying to have your starts and finishes on the underside.
Secure the bacon by piercing through with a piece of dry spaghetti noodle and place on the prepared baking tray.
Grind some more pepper over and bake to an internal temperature of 145ºF, about 20 minutes.
Slice, serve and enjoy with a good red wine...
