Directions

1. Heat a large pan, drizzle the roast with olive oil, season generously with salt and pepper, then brown in the pan, fat side down first, until evenly browned all over.

2. Transfer to a roasting dish, brush the roast with chimichurri, then roast in a preheated 200°C oven for 45 minutes or until cooked to your desired doneness.

3. Remove from the oven, cover with foil and leave to rest for 20 – 30 minutes before slicing.

4. Pour boiling water over the asparagus and leave to sit for 3 minutes, then drain.

5 In a large pan, add the olive oil, garlic, thyme and chilli flakes, then sauté over low heat to release the flavours in the herbs and spices.

6. Toss in the drained asparagus, turn the heat up to high and sauté for a few minutes. Add lemon zest and juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

7. Place the carrots, butter, honey, water and seasoning into a pan, cover with a lid and allow to simmer until carrots are soft.

8. Remove the lid, turn up the heat and allow the liquid to completely evaporate and the carrots to caramelise and become sticky around the edges.
