With roast potatoes, seasonal veg and Yorkshire puddings this rib of beef is great for Sunday roasts. Just don't forget the horseradish!

Serves: 6-9

What you need:

• 2-Bone Rib of Beef
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil

What you do:

1. Ensure that the joint is at room temperature well in advance of cooking. Weigh it to calculate the cooking time. Preheat the oven to 250ºC/475ºF/Gas 9
