900g of Silverside Roast Beef
1-2 Tbsp Olive Oil
Freshly grounded Black Pepper
1 large onion or 2 shallots sliced
3 cloves of garlic diced
450ml of beef stock
Method
Preheat the oven to 160°c/Fan 140°c/Gas 3 and bring the beef to room temperature before roasting
Massage the beef with oil and season generously with black pepper
Place a large flameproof pan over a high heat and brown the beef on all sides. Then transfer to a tray.
Take the flameproof pan off the heat and cook the onions and garlic. Once cooked add to the beef in the tray.
Pour your beef stock into the tray with the beef, onions and garlic. Once that is done create a tight lid using tinfoil over the tray and cook in the preheated oven for 3 hours until tender (the cooking time will increase depending on how big the beef joint is).
Once the beef is cooked set it aside to rest for 30 minutes in the tinfoil you used as a lid.

With the remaining stock and juices in the tray pour that into a saucepan and bring to the boil to create a very flavoursome gravy.
Carve the meat and serve with vegetables and side of your choice.

Important: Slow Roasting Time Guide All times are based on 160°C / Fan 140°C / Gas 3. Always brown the joint in a pan before roasting.
