Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs top round roast
1/2 cup dry red wine
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

1. Place beef in an 8- by 12-inch roasting pan.
2. In a small bowl, mix wine, hoisin sauce, garlic, and coriander; brush evenly over beef.
3. Roast in a 425 degree oven until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of roast registers 135 degrees for rare (about 35 minutes; after 25 minutes, check temperature every 5 minutes).
4. During roasting, brush beef 4 times with wine mixture.

10. Remove pan from heat, cover tightly with foil, and let stand until liquid is absorbed (about 5 minutes).
11. Stir in peas, onions, and any juices that have accumulated around beef.
