Roast Fillet Of Beef With Mushroom Tarragon Sauce Recipes

THE PERFECT ROAST FILLET OF BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200º C. Pat the beef fillet dry with kitchen towel. Tie the tenderloin with butchers string at 3cm spacings. Rub the Dijon mustard over the fillet, coating well on all sides. Season generously with salt, black pepper, and rosemary. Heat an oven-proof pan until hot. Drizzle the fillet with olive oil and brown for 2 minutes per side. (About 4 turns in total) Add the shallots and garlic clove to the pan and transfer to the oven. For medium-rare, roast uncovered for 23 minutes. Remove the fillet from the pan, cover loosely with a foil and rest while you finish the sauce. Remove the garlic and set aside. Place the pan on the hob, deglaze with the wine and stock. Boil hard to reduce by two thirds. Strain the sauce and discard the solids. Turn the heat off and add the butter 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking to incorporate. Once the sauce is glossy, remove from the heat and keep warm. To make the horseradish cream, press the roast garlic into a bowl. Add all the remaining ingredients and whisk to combine. To serve, drizzle the red wine sauce over the fillet and serve with dollops of Horseradish Crème fraîche.

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Combine porcini mushrooms and water in a bowl; soak until soft, 1 hour. Drain and reserve liquid. Dice and set mushrooms and reserved liquid aside.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Season beef generously with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Place beef in the skillet; cook until brown on all sides, 5 to 8 minutes per side.
• Reduce heat to medium and stir in 1 tablespoon butter, shallots, and a pinch of salt; cook until shallots are soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Pour tarragon vinegar into the skillet and bring to a boil while scraping any browned bits off of the bottom. Stir until liquid is reduced by half, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Pour in veal stock, cream, 1/2 cup reserved mushroom liquid, mushrooms, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Return beef to the skillet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until meat is medium rare, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Transfer meat to a plate and loosely tent with foil. Set skillet over high heat and bring pan juices to a boil.
• Stir in 1 tablespoon butter and tarragon; season with salt and pepper to taste. Return tenderloin and any accumulated juices to skillet and serve.

FILLET OF BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220ºC/425ºF/gas 7.
• Get the meat out of the fridge and leave to come up to room temperature before you cook it. Cover the porcini with 300ml of boiling water and leave to rehydrate for 5 minutes.
• Peel and finely chop 2 of the garlic cloves, then place in a large frying pan on a high heat with a knob of the butter. Add the porcini and half the soaking liquor, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until thick and syrupy.
• Squeeze in the lemon juice, stir in the remaining butter, and season to taste with sea salt and black pepper. Leave to cool slightly.
• Drizzle the beef with 1 tablespoon of oil and season with black pepper. Sear in a sturdy roasting tray over a medium heat on the hob until browned all over, then remove from the heat.
• Lay out the slices of prosciutto on a large piece of greaseproof paper, overlapping them slightly, making a sheet big enough to wrap around the fillet.
• Spread the mushroom mixture lengthways over one half of the prosciutto, then sit the beef on top. Carefully roll up, tuck in the ends, then discard the paper. Secure with butcher's string.
• Squash the remaining unpeeled garlic cloves and put into the roasting tray with the herbs, then carefully place the beef on top. Cook in the oven for 25 minutes for rare, 30 to 35 minutes for medium, or 40 minutes for well done.
• When the time's up, remove the meat to a board to rest for 5 minutes, pouring any juices back into the tray.
• Transfer the tray to a medium-high heat on the hob, pour in the wine and the remaining porcini soaking liquor (discarding just the last gritty bit) and simmer to your desired consistency, scraping up all the goodness from the bottom of the tray.
• Remove from the heat, and sieve before serving, if you like - I also like to whisk in an extra knob of butter for maximum silkiness.
• Carve up the beef and serve drizzled with the red wine sauce - delicious with celeriac and potato mash, and steamed greens.

GORDON RAMSAY'S ROAST BEEF FILLET RECIPE

Steps:

• To make the dressing, cut each tomato in half and squeeze out the seeds. Finely chop the flesh and place in a large bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients, except for the herbs, and mix well. Season well with salt and pepper to taste. Cover with cling film and chill for at least 20 mins or until ready to serve.
• Heat the oven to 200°C/Gas 6 and preheat a roasting pan. Trim any fat or sinew from the fillet of beef and season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick frying pan with a little olive oil. When it is very hot, add the beef and sear for 1½-2 mins on each side until evenly browned all over.
• Lightly oil the hot roasting pan. Transfer the beef to the roasting pan and place it in the oven. Roast for 25 mins for medium rare beef - it should feel a little springy when lightly pressed. Transfer the fillet to a warm platter and leave to rest for 10 mins.
• Serve the beef warm or at room temperature. Slice it thickly and overlap the slices on a serving platter. Pile the rocket into the centre. Stir the chopped herbs into the tomato tarragon dressing and spoon over the beef. Accompany with new potatoes if you like.

• Add the broth, tomato paste and tarragon and any juices that may have accumulated around the fillet. Cook over high heat for a few minutes until the sauce is reduced to 1 1/4 cups. Swirl in the butter and remove from heat. Keep warm.

ROAST FILLET OF BEEF WITH CORNICHON TARRAGON SAUCE

Steps:

• Rub the fillets with the oil, season them with salt and pepper, and in a large roasting pan, leaving space between the fillets, roast them in a preheated 550°F. oven for 23 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 130°F., for medium-rare meat. Transfer the fillets to a platter and let them stand, covered loosely with foil, for 15 minutes. In a bowl with an electric mixer cream together the butter and the mustard. In a large saucepan combine the shallot, the wine, and the tarragon and cook the mixture over moderately high heat until the wine is reduced to about 1 cup. The mustard butter and the shallot mixture may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Reheat the shallot mixture before continuing. Add the cream and the cornichons, reduce the heat to low, and whisk in the mustard butter, a little at a time, and any meat juices that have accumulated on the platter. Season the sauce with salt and pepper and keep it warm, but do not let it boil. Slice the fillets and nap the meat with the sauce.
