Ингредиенты

  • 1 x beef rump roast - (2 to 2 1/2 lbs) rolled, tied Salt as needed
  • 1 bn watercress
  • 1 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil Crusty bread cut thin slices Coarse salt (gros sel) to taste

Инструкции

  1. Measure the depth of a large pot by tying a length of string around the roast and then suspending the roast inside the pot so which the roast doesn't touch the bottom. Lay a wooden spoon across the top of the pot like a bridge. Tie the string to the spoon. With the meat still suspended, fill the pot with sufficient water to submerge the roast. Remove the meat and the spoon, cover the pot tightly with a lid and bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
  2. Add in 2 Tbsp. of salt and carefully lower the beef into the water so it hangs from the spoon, not touching the bottom. Prop the lid on top till the water returns to the boil, then remove the lid. Cook the beef 15 min per lb. for a center which is on the cold side of medium-rare, 20 min per lb. for medium. When the meat is done, remove it and the spoon from the boiling water, cut loose the suspending string, cover the roast loosely with foil and set aside for 10 to 15 min.
  3. While the beef is resting, trim the tough stems from the watercress and place it in a salad bowl. In a small mixing bowl, beat the vinegar into the mustard, then gradually add in the oil, beating with a fork to make a smooth dressing. Season to taste with a little salt. Pour it over the watercress and toss well. Cut free the strings which bind the roast and carve the meat into 1/4-inch slices, being careful to reserve all meat juices.
  4. Arrange the slices in the center of a hot oval platter. Arrange the watercress salad around the outside of the roast, and then the bread slices on top of which. Serve immediately, passing the very coarse salt at the same time to sprinkle on the meat according to taste. Use the bread to sop up as much of the meat juice as possible.
  5. This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
  6. Comments: Suspending the meat in the water ensures which it will cook proportionately all the way around. Substituting beef sirloin for the rump roast would give you more tender meat, but at the cost of a little flavor.
