There's no need to wait for Sunday as roasting beef is easier than you think. All you need is a good thick piece of sirloin and a hot oven.
"A succulent sirloin for Sunday."
Ingredients
2kg sirloin
Olive oil
Garlic
Salt and Pepper
Montreal Steak Seasoning (if you want a tinge of mesquite to your meat). You can also use Cajun
Serves...
5 - 6
Crispy roasted on the outside while still tender-pink in the middle
Most of the time is from roasting it slowly in the oven, so really, not hard at all
Method
Pat olive oil on the beef.
Chop the garlic finely and mix it will the other seasonings with it.
Roll your meat in it so that the seasonings are evenly spread all over the meat.
Sear your roast on a pan to seal in all the juices. The outside of the meat should be brown and a little crisp.
Once this is done make sure you pour all the remnants of this delicious garlic infused oil on the beef.
Cover it with foil and pop it in the oven for about 1 and a half hours at about 170 celcius (make sure you preheat the oven first). The last half an hour roast it uncovered so that it will brown nicely.
Tips:Poke it with a carving fork. If the juice oozing out is pink then you've got it medium rare. Clear juice means it's medium. Make sure you let it rest for about 10 minutes before carving so the juice can go back into the meat.
