Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F) and use these cooking times to prepare a roast that's moist, tender and delicious.Your roast should be covered with foil for the first half of the roasting time.

4 to 5lb Joint 20 minutes per pound in weight plus 20 minutes extra. 80 minutes total.

Tips for a better roast. For extra flavour you can add optional vegetables such as carrots, parsnips, onions and celery to your roasting pan, and roast the meat 'on a bed' of veg. The veg also helps to keep the roast off the bottom of the roasting pan so it doesn't 'stew' in its own juices.

Preheat oven to 180deg C,350 deg F, gas mark 4-5, "30 minutes plus 30 minutes per pound" is my mother's rule of thumb.

i.e for a 5lb joint: 3 hours
