Instructions
In a large bowl, stir the vinegar with 1/4 cup of the sugar and 1 tablespoon of salt until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
Add the onions and let stand at room temperature, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 1 hour.
Drain the onions, reserving the pickling liquid.
Meanwhile, rub the beef with the oil and set it in a small roasting pan. Season with salt and pat with 1 tablespoon of the peppercorns. Roast on the lowest rack of the oven for about 40 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 125 for medium-rare.
Transfer the roast to a board and let rest for 30 minutes.
In a saucepan, combine the ros with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and boil over high heat until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 20 minutes.
Add 1/4 cup of the pickling liquid and bring to a simmer.
Add the cornstarch slurry and the remaining peppercorns and cook until thickened, about 1 minute.
Slice the meat, removing the strings.
Transfer to plates and top with the onions.
Drizzle with the sauce and serve.
