Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Season beef with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a roasting pan over medium heat, sear beef on all sides until browned, then transfer to a baking dish.
Step 2: Toss carrots, parsnips, and onions with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Add to the roasting pan, sauté for 5 minutes, then transfer to the baking dish around the beef.
Step 3: Roast for 1 hour, then reduce heat to 325°F (160°C) and cook for 25-30 minutes until beef reaches medium doneness.
Step 4: For Yorkshire pudding: Whisk flour, eggs, milk, and 1 tbsp butter in a bowl until smooth. Pour into a greased pudding dish. Bake alongside the roast for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden.
