Ingredients
The longer you leave the beef in the marinade, the more intense the flavour will become. This process also starts to tenderise the meat.
- 1kg (2lb 4oz) top rump
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 6 black peppercorns
- 250ml (9fl oz) red wine
- 4tbsp redcurrant jelly
Method
- Place the beef in a large bowl and add the garlic, thyme sprigs, peppercorns and red wine. Leave to marinate for at least an hour. Drain and reserve the marinade.
- Place the marinated beef in a roasting pan, drizzle over a little marinade and roast in a preheated oven at 200°C, 400°F or gas 6 for 50 mins to 1 hr.
- Meanwhile, bring the rest of the marinade to the boil, add the jelly and simmer until thickened. Pour over the meat about 10 mins before it's cooked.
- Remove the roast beef from the oven and leave to rest for 20 mins before carving. Then spoon some of the marinade on to the meat and serve.
