I really do like a succulent rare roast beef. I like to use eye fillet for it - I know it's an expensive cut, but it really does taste the best!
When I am having such a lovely cut of meat, delicately and perfectly cooked, I like to do something other than drown it in gravy. Sometimes a little salsa - but today, a little crumb. Be a little careful not to use too much cheese, or an overwhelmingly powerful cheese - such a beautiful roast deserves to shine.
What you will need
How to?
Sprinkle the meat with salt. Heat a pan to really hot and add a nob of butter, brown all sides. Place in a baking dish in a 200 degree oven for 15 minutes. Rest for 10 minutes. Top with crumbled aged cheddar, parsley and spring onion. Serve with vegetables or salad.
