Remove the beef from the fridge an hour before cooking to reach room temperature
3
Preheat the oven to 220°C/gas mark 7
4
Toss the carrots in olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper
5
Place the beef in an oven tray with the carrots arranged around the sides. The carrots will roast in the beef drippings, making them extra delicious
