Roast Sirloin With Black Pepper Crust
Instructions
Rub the seasoning really well into the meat and then drizzle the oil all over - rub the oil in as well and give the meat a second coating of seasoning. Leave the seasoned and oiled meat at room temperature for half an hour before cooking.
Preheat the oven to 200C. Pour 3 cups (750 ml) of boiling water into a roasting pan. Place the meat on a trivet or rack that fits on or over the pan. Put the pan, with meat on, in the oven.
Roast the meat open at 200C for 20 minutes. Turn the oven temperature down to 180C and insert the meat thermometer into the thickest middle part of the roast. Roast until thermometer registers 'rare' 60C.
