This flavourful rib eye roast is coated with seasonings then topped with a mustard and horseradish sauce mixture. Serve with baked potatoes and tossed salad. You can actually buy a similar roast called a Black Russian from some butchers... this is pretty much the same thing.
Ingredients:
- 1 beef rib eye roast, about 1.3kg
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp coarsely ground black pepper
- ½ tsp dried leaf thyme
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tsp horseradish cream
Preparation:
Combine salt, pepper, and thyme; rub over all sides of roast.
Place the roast, fat side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
Roast at 180°C for about 1 hour.
Combine Dijon mustard and horseradish; spread over the beef.
Roast for 20 minutes longer (medium rare).
Due to the richness of the topping, it's best served with a leafy salad.
