Herb Roast Beef (Slow Cooker)

1. 1

   Reserve 1 unchopped rosemary sprig and several garlic cloves. (You will use this garlic and rosemary to poke into the meat to add extra flavour).

2. 2

   Put all other ingredients except the meat in the slow cooker on high. Put lid on to allow mixture to warm in the slow cooker.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, braise the meat on all sides in a separate frying pan using a spoonful of oil, until meat is lightly browned. This step is designed to seal in the juices as topside meat is usually quite dry. Braising should take around 5 minutes.

   Once braised, gently set meat on top of onion mixture in slow cooker.

5. 5

   Poke reserved garlic and rosemary into folds in meat and leave to cook.

6. 6

   Roast 4-5 hours on high until meat is tender and falling apart. Cook time wil depend on size of roast.

7. 7

   Serve with your favourite roasted vegetables.
