ROAST BEEF: Rub serloin tip roast with 5-spice seasoning and sesame oil.
Place beef, fat side up, on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat
thermometer so tip is in thickest part of beef and does not touch bone or

desired
degree of doneness, planning about 21 to 30 minutes per pound (140 degrees
rare; 160 degrees medium). Roast to 5 degrees below desired degree of
doneness. Cover roast with foil tent and let stand 15 to 20 minutes before
carving. Temperature will rise about 5 degrees. Serve with Blackberry
Ketchup.
BLACKBERRY KETCHUP: Mix the berries with vinegar and water in a saucepan.
Bring to a boil; lower heat to a simmer and cook 5 minutes. Sieve out
seeds.
Return to saucepan and add brown sugar, cloves, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne
pepper, salt, butter and grated tangerine rind. Simmer about 10 minutes,
until thickened. Let cool. Makes approximately 2 cups.
