FOR POTATOES :

FOR ROAST BEEF :
- To dry age your beef, pat dry with kitchen towel and place on a cooling rack on top of a tray and place meat in the fridge (not covered) for at least 24 hours to 36 hours. The air helps circulate the meat and air dries it for a fuller meaty taste
- To roast, take meat out at least 30 minutes before rubbing a good amount of sea salt and pepper onto the whole surface of the beef and place in the oven for 45 mins at 160c
- Bring meat out and let it rest
- In a non stick pan, add in some vegetable oil and pan fry it for no less then 15 seconds on each side for 10 minutes, let it rest and then slice meat
Notes
A good piece of beef is vital for this recipe. I get mine from Village Grocer or Ben’s Grocer and I always ask for the tenderloin. The tenderloin means its the tender part of the cow. Get the butcher to trim it for you and tie it up into a log
