Tip
Instructions
Mix together the breadcrumbs, pecorino, strong-flavoured olive oil, crushed garlic cloves and finely chopped basil. Season with salt and pepper.
Using a brush, brush the rib of beef with strong-flavoured olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Cook on the barbecue for 20 to 30 minutes, turning regularly.
In the final stage, spread the herb paste over the top of the rib of beef and cook for a few minutes.
Leave the meat to rest in a dish covered with aluminium foil for 10 minutes before carving and serving.
Tip
For this recipe, we recommend using PDO huile d'olive de Haute-Provence (intense flavour) for its dominant aromas of raw artichoke, accompanied by notes of grass, banana, fresh almond and apple. Don’t have any? You can also use any of these PDO olive oils: Aix-en-Provence, Corsica – Oliu di Corsica – tree-harvested, Nîmes, Provence or Vallée des Baux-de-Provence.
