Trimlestown Roast Sirloin

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

• 1 (3 pound) sirloin roast
• 2 ounces whiskey
• 10 ounces red wine
• 1 ounce butter
• 2 ounces all-purpose flour
• Salt and pepper

Instructions

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
2. Wipe meat, season and place in a roasting pan. Place pan in oven and bake for one hour.
3. Add the whiskey and wine to the pan. Cook for a further hour, basting once more.
4. Remove the roast from the pan, place on a serving dish and keep warm. Pour off excess fat from the meat juices, adding water to bring to about 15 ounces.
5. Beat the butter into the flour to form a smooth paste. Add a little of the juices to this and mix well, then pour onto juices, mixing again, and bring to the boil. Simmer gently for 2 to 3 minutes to cook flour. Correct the seasoning. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more water.
6. Serve separately in a gravy boat.
