You don't have to be made them together but since I did I'm going to write about both. This roast is very good. I like how there isn't to much going on. Sometimes people think you need to use every spice available to man to make things taste good, that's not always true. The garlic mashed potatoes are a nice change from boring old mashed potatoes. The garlic isn't over the top which is nice (nobody wants super garlic breath).
Roast
1(3 pound) beef eye of round roast
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Season the roast with salt and pepper and place in a roasting pan or baking dish. Do not cover or add water. Place the roast in the preheated oven. Reduce the temperature to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Roast for 21 minutes (seven minutes per pound) then turn off the oven and let the roast sit in the hot oven for 2 1/2 hours. Do not open the door at all during this time! Remove the roast from the oven, the internal temperature should have reached at least 145 degrees F (65 degrees C). Carve into thin slices to serve.
Potatoes
2 lbs red potatoes
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter
salt and black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup roasted garlic (about 2 small whole heads)
Preheat oven at 400. Place garlic cloves in a aluminum foil packet and place in the oven and roast for 45 minutes. During this time boil potatoes. Take garlic cloves and squeeze out of the skin into a mixing bowl. Add the remainder ingredients and using a stand or hand mixer, mix until creamy.
