Good food is not just about the plate, it's about the people you share it with ❀️🍽️

I had this delicious Herb Roast Beef on my birthday cruise and I immediately thought I need to make a better, halal version at home for you all!

So from now on, I'll be sharing my favorite EASY & AFFORDABLE recipes you can make for your family - just free recipes with love ❀️

First recipe is this one below πŸ‘‡ Would you try it?

SAVE this post so you don't lose it!

What you need (all Halal, simple from any store):

For the beef:
β€’ 2 lb Halal beef roast - I get mine from the Halal market on Baltimore National Pike, always ask for fresh cut.
How I make it - my way:

1.Wash your meat well. Then rub it good with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic and rosemary. Really massage it. Let it sit for 30 minutes on the counter. this makes it so tender, don't rush this part!

2. Heat your pan really hot and sear it - 2 minutes each side till it gets that beautiful brown color. Your kitchen will smell amazing already.

3. Now put it in the oven at 375Β°F. I do 20-25 minutes for medium - my family doesn't like it too red inside. If you like it more well done, leave it a bit more.

4. While the meat is in the oven, steam your veggies with a little butter and a pinch of salt. Keep them a little crunchy, not mushy.

5. This is the most important secret I learned: When you take the meat out, DO NOT CUT IT RIGHT AWAY! Let it rest 10 minutes covered with foil. This keeps all the juice inside. If you cut it too fast, all the juice runs out.

Slice it, pour a little gravy, serve with mashed potatoes.

My family ate this with fresh bread and said "Mama this is better than the cruise!" 😭❀️

Try it and tell me how your family liked it! Is your family team medium or well-done? Comment below πŸ‘‡

Save this recipe - you will need it for Eid or family gatherings!
