Lay the onions and bulbs of garlic in the tray with the beef on top of them, then cook in the pre-heated oven for a total of 1 1/2 hours.

While the beef is roasting, parboil your potatoes in salted boiling water for around 10 minutes and drain in a colander.

Toss about to chuff them up, this will make them really crispy.

Shake the tray and whack it back in the oven for the final hour.
