Beef Rib Eye Roast

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.
