This festive roast is made with a juicy beef loin, generously rubbed with salt and a peppercorn mixture, and baked in the oven for a couple of hours. While it's baking, add potatoes to the roasting pan so you can have both the main course and the side dish cooking simultaneously. Meanwhile, prepare an Italian salmoriglio sauce with the beef, made from aromatic fresh herbs, garlic, lemon, and olive oil. Its refreshing flavor will be a wonderful complement to the roasted meat. Optionally, you can also prepare roasted sweet peppers with olives and capers.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 230°C.
- Sprinkle the beef evenly with 1.5 tablespoons of salt and pepper, massaging into the meat. Place bone-side down on the rack in a roasting pan. Bake for 30 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, rosemary, and 1.5 teaspoons of salt. Arrange the potatoes around the roast and continue roasting until the surface is richly browned and the internal temperature reaches 125°F (49°C), another 1.5 to 2 hours. Let the roast rest for 20 minutes, then carve.
- SalmoriglioHeat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and garlic and cook until the garlic is golden brown and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Let cool. In a medium bowl, combine the lemon zest and juice, rosemary, thyme, and salt. Pour in the olive oil and garlic and let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Serve the sauce with the meat.
- If you're making a roasted pepper salad, toss it with baked potatoes, drizzle with olive oil, and serve with the meat.
- Roasted Pepper SaladHeat a large skillet over high heat and add the olive oil, bell peppers, and salt. Cook, stirring and tossing frequently, until the peppers begin to brown and soften, about 10 minutes. Transfer the peppers to a large bowl and toss with the parsley, olives, and capers.
