Oven-Baked Foil-Wrapped Beef Roast

In foil, the beef becomes soft and very juicy. The degree of doneness of the roast beef can be adjusted to your taste. I donʼt like rare meat, just like I donʼt like it medium rare. I like meat cooked to perfection.

Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake a piece of beef in the oven in foil? Prepare your ingredients. To cook beef we will need: beef pulp in one large piece, preferably without hard veins (I have roast beef); olive oil; dried seasonings: oregano, mint and ground coriander; ground black pepper and salt.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the beef pulp and dry it. Rub the meat with olive oil, dried herbs, salt and pepper. Leave to marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Step 3

Step 3
Place the meat on a double sheet of foil. Pour the remaining olive oil from the marinade on top. You can heat a little olive oil in a saucepan and fry the meat on all sides until golden brown. I didn’t do this because I wanted tender beef without a fried crust.

Step 4

Step 4
Carefully wrap the beef in a double sheet of foil and place on a baking sheet or baking dish.

Step 5

Step 5
Place the meat in an oven preheated to 160°C and bake for about 1 hour. It took me about 25 minutes more because I didnʼt brown the meat before baking. You can unwrap the beef and put it back in the oven for 20 minutes to get a crispy crust. But in this case, it is very easy to dry out the meat, especially if the piece itself is not very thick.

Step 6

Step 6
Remove the beef from the oven and place on a platter. Serve the meat with any sauce. I served with a mint basil sauce made from olive oil and peanuts (can substitute pine nuts). Bon appetit!
