Ingredients:

Veal Beef (Filet) 4 pounds

Onions and Garlic

Moustard

Olives & Capers

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Red Wine

Marine Salt

 

 

 

 

 

Start frying the onion in extra virgin olive oil.

 

 

 

 

 

As the onion fades add the garlic.

 

 

 

 

 

As the soffritto starts to get brown color add the beef.

 

 

 

 

 

Seat the beef slowly on top of the soffritto, set high the fire.

 

 

 

 

 

We need to quickly cook the external part of the beef, this to keep the beef sierum inside.

 

 

 

 

 

Use the fork to upside down the beef, roast it well on each side.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Keeping the fire high you have to roast the beef on each side until it get a brown color, be careful to not burn too much the garlic and the onion to avoid that you can add some white wine but only a little bit for now. Spread two pinces of marine salt on the beef sides. Add the olives and the capers, stir, then spread one spoon of mustard on each side, add one full glass of red wine, turn upside down the beef and finally, as the wine starts to boil, cover with a lid set off the fire and leave covered for 10-15 minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Ten minutes give to you a very rare beef, instead 15 minutes the beef will be medium rare, I hold it for 15 minutes here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take from its sauce the filetto and seat it in a plate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Put back the sauce on the fire, heat, add another glass of red wine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stir well.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Let the sauce to boil, keep stirring

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Check the salt.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As the sauce reduced of volume you can stop the fire.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lets go to slice it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Internally is perfect !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I cut all in slices.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I put back in the pot to remain warm ready to be served.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seat one or two slices in each plate, spread a spoon of sauce on the top !
