2kg . Minced Buffalo meat

1 med. onion, chopped
garlic salt
50gr green olives, chopped
25gr Tomato ketchup

Roast Topside Buffalo
• 1kg boneless buffalo top-side roast
• 2 cloves garlic, cut in quarters
• 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
• 1 tbsp coarse ground black pepper
• 2 tsp sea salt
• 5 slices of prosciutto or bacon
Preparation:

Preheat oven gas 5 200c

Make 8 evenly spaced incisions with a small knife, about 2 inches deep, in the roast. Push in the pieces of garlic as far as possible. Rub the roast with the oil and coat evenly with salt and pepper. Place in a roasting pan and drape over the prosciutto or bacon.

Roast the buffalo until a meat thermometer 130 degree F., for medium rare. Buffalo meat has less fat than beef and may get dry if cooked beyond medium. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
