Wrap each bone in heavy duty foil, to prevent them from burning during the cooking process.<br \/>\nPat the roast dry, season with salt and coarse black pepper. Place on a rack on a roasting tray and place in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes to brown.<\/p>\n<p>Once the roast has browned nicely, reduce the oven temp to 180 \u00b0C and roast the meat for about 1 hour and 15 minutes for medium rare. I recommend using a meat thermometer to ensure that your roast is cooked properly \u2013 50-55 \u00b0C would be a medium roast. Once the correct temperature is reached, remove the roast from the oven and place on a tray to rest for 15 to 30 minutes before carving.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cape Chamomile And Rosemary Butter<br \/>\n<\/strong>While the beef rib is roasting prepare the Cape chamomile and rosemary butter. Place all of the ingredients for the butter in a mixing bowl and mix well with a spatula. Spoon into a serving dish and cover with cling film. Leave at room temperature so that the butter remains spreadable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Potatoes<br \/>\n<\/strong>Place the baby potatoes in a heavy based saucepan, cover with cold water, add salt and bring to the boil. Once the potatoes are cooked, remove from the saucepan and set aside to cool. Drizzle with olive oil and season with Maldon salt.<\/p>\n<p>Grill the baby potatoes whole in a hot griddle pan to obtain a lovely smoky grilled flavour.<\/p>\n<p>Slice the sweet potatoes into 2-3 cm rings and place into the baking tray from which your roast was removed, with all the roast drippings. Add the grilled baby potatoes to the tray.<\/p>\n<p>Scoop the marrow out of 12 of the marrow bone halves, chop up and sprinkle over the potato and sweet potato. Season with salt and pepper and roast at 180 \u00b0C until the sweet potatoes are cooked and golden brown. Halfway through the cooking process, add the other 12 marrow bones halves to roast with the sweet potato and potatoes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To serve<br \/>\n<\/strong>Once the meat has properly rested, place the prime rib together with the marrow bones, potatoes and sweet potatoes on a serving platter. Serve the Cape chamomile and rosemary butter on the side.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Recommended wine: 2013 La Motte Cabernet Sauvignon<\/em><\/strong><div class=\"rir-row\"><div class=\"rir-cols-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/GTL_Ribs.jpg\" \/><\/div><\/div>Love the way this all comes together?
