Instructions
Honey-glazed vegetables: Pour the two kinds of potatoes and carrots in salted boiling water. Boil at low heat, with the lid on, for approx. 2 min. Drain and steam the vegetables. Add butter, honey, salt and pepper. Turn around and mix well. Fold in the halved onions. Arrange the vegetables on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake in the middle of the oven.
Rub the meat with salt and pepper. Heat butter and oil in a pan until golden. Fry the meat at moderate heat on all 4 sides, 8 – 10 min. on each side – according to thickness. Remove the meat from the pan and allow to rest, covered, for approx. 10 min.
Beetroot tsatziki: Pass the beetroot through a sieve. Discard the juice. Stir together beetroot, yogurt, garlic, olive oil and salt. Season.
Serving: Slice the roast beef. Serve the meat with honey-glazed vegetables decorated with parsley and beetroot tsatziki. Sprinkle the vegetables with cider vinegar and season.
