- 625 g prime topside - The underside had a layer of fat which I left intact after much work with the tenderiser.
- 4 spring onions
- Bunch of sage
- 2 bay leaves
- Bunch of thyme
- 1 tablespoon English mustard

Method

- Add a pinch of salt and pepper
- Paint the joint with 1 tablespoon of English mustard
- Add the joint to the bag, hold it closed and shake it to distribute the salt and pepper
- Arrange the spring onions and herbs equally around the joint
- Vacuum seal
- Cook sous vide for 10 hours at 57°C (134.6°F)
- After 10 hours, open the bag and discard everything but the beef, you might have to pick some of the twiggy bits out as they can get 'buried'
