1 tbsp mustard powder
150ml/¼ pint/scant ⅔ cup red wine
600m/1 pint/2½ cups beef stock
600m/1 pint/2½ cups boiling water (or vegetable water)

3 Roast in the centre of the oven for 30 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 220°C/425°F/Gas 7 and cook for 1–2 hours (depending on how well cooked you like your beef), basting occasionally with the fat.

5 Skim off most of the fat from the roasting pan and place on the hob. Add the wine and boil until very syrupy. Pour in the stock and boil until syrupy. Add the water and fruit jelly or sauce and boil until syrupy. Check the seasoning.
6 Carve the beef. Serve with gravy, roast potatoes and vegetables with mustard or horseradish sauce.
