Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best. This is certainly true of our roasted rib-eye beef recipe. It calls for only a few good quality, fresh ingredients and is very easy to make, even if you don’t have a lot of experience in the kitchen.
What you need for this tasty recipe
Rib eye is the cut chosen for this mouthwatering recipe. It comes from the front part of the cow. This particular area is not worked too hard, so when cooked, a rib eye cut will be beautifully tender and flavourful too.
The only other ingredients you need for this roasted beef dish are thyme and sage to add a herby flavour and vegetables. We’ve suggested small whole parsnips and carrots here for their distinctive taste.
It’s healthy, nutritious and ethical too!
What you’ll love about this recipe is that it makes a healthy and satisfying family meal.
Beef is a great choice to get your fill of B vitamins and minerals like zinc to boost your immune system and iron to help oxygenate the blood.
We also suggest that you reach for free-range beef for this recipe. That’s because not only will you end up with tastier and healthier meat, but you’ll also be supporting sustainable and ethical farming.
Free-range cattle are free to roam and eat their natural diet of grass, just as they would in the wild.
Free-range beef means the fat content is lower, the nutrient content is higher, and the meat you feed your family is free of added hormones and antibiotics.
It’s also the obvious choice to show your support for ethical farming that prizes high standards of animal welfare.
Serving suggestions and substitutions
Serve this recipe for a family meal with as many roast vegetables as you like. While we’ve suggested parsnips and carrots, you can add varieties of your choice.
You may also want to throw in some roast potatoes to give this recipe a “traditional Sunday roast” flavour.
