1 tablespoon cumin seeds

1/2 cup (60g) sea salt flakes

1/4 teaspoon mixed spice

1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

3 kilogram beef standing rib roast (about 4 ribs)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Garlic mayonnaise

1 cup (300g) whole egg mayonnaise

1 tablespoon water

2 teaspoon lemon juice

2 clove garlic, crushed

Method

1.Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan-forced).

2.Using a mortar and pestle, grind the seeds together until coarsely crushed. Add salt, mixed spice and pepper, mix well. Remove a third of the spice mixture and reserve. Brush beef with oil, rub remaining spice mixture all over beef.

3.Roast beef, uncovered, about 1 1/2 hours for rare, or until cooked as desired. Cover, stand, 15 minutes, before carving. Meanwhile, toast remaining spice mixture in a dry pan until fragrant, allow to cool.

4.For garlic mayonnaise, combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Serve beef with garlic mayonnaise and toasted spice mixture.

Ask the butcher to tie beef with string between ribs to retain a neat shape while cooking.
