Classic Oven Roast Beef with Rosemary Cream Sauce

Roast beef is so simple (and impressive) for entertaining – just season (simply), oven-sear and slow-roast for best results. Use a meat thermometer to cook your roast to the doneness that you like the best – without overcooking it! Our time-test results are based on a roast that was about 8½-in (21 cm) long x 4½-in (11 cm) wide x 3½-in (9 cm) deep. NOTE: ‘Time-to-cook’ figures are rough guidelines only as cook time is dependent on so many factors such as oven and thermometer accuracy, starting temperature of roast, roast shape and cut. A good thermometer is one of your best kitchen investments.
