Instructions
- Take the roast out of the fridge one hour before cooking, then season it generously with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 220°C. Peel the potatoes, cut them into large chunks, boil them for 5 minutes, then drain and shake them in the pan to rough up their surface.
- For the Yorkshire pudding, mix the flour, salt, eggs and milk until you have a smooth batter, then let it rest for 20 minutes.
- Heat the oil in an ovenproof roasting tin for 5 minutes, sear the roast on all sides, then place it on roughly chopped vegetables. Roast for 20 minutes.
- Lower the oven to 180°C and continue cooking for 40 minutes for pink meat, basting once with its fat. Remove the roast and rest it for 15 minutes under foil.
- Meanwhile, roast the potatoes in the hot fat for 45 minutes, turning them halfway, until golden and crispy.
- Pour the batter into very hot, oiled muffin tins and bake for 20 to 25 minutes at 220°C, until well risen and golden.
- For the gravy, deglaze the roasting tin with the stock, mix the butter and flour, then stir in the mustard and let it thicken for 3 minutes while stirring.
Variations and tips
Vegetarian version. Replace the roast with a large cauliflower head or portobello mushrooms marinated in oil, thyme and soy sauce.
Using what's available here. Sirloin is a perfect stand-in for topside, and Dijon mustard can take the place of English mustard.
