Get the beef out of the fridge one hour before cooking.

Drizzle the beef with olive oil and rub it all over.

Season generously with salt and pepper.

Heat some oil in a tray and sear the beef to get color.

Prepare a trivet with half a celery, one onion, a whole bulb of garlic, and two carrots cut into chunks.

Add bay leaves and rosemary to the trivet.

Place the beef on top of the trivet in the tray.

Roast the beef in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for an hour and a quarter.

Let the beef rest for half an hour after roasting.

Make gravy by adding a heaped tablespoon of flour to the tray, squeezing out garlic, and mushing the onions.

Add half a glass of red wine and about a liter of beef stock to the tray and bring to a boil, then simmer for half an hour.

Pour the gravy through a coarse sieve.
