Ingredients

  • 500 g of beef fillet, middle part
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 1 large of shallot
  • 15 g of porcini mushrooms, rehydrated in 4 tbsp water, finely chopped
  • 100 ml of double cream
  • 2 tbsp of truffle oil
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 15 g of butter
  • 1 tsp of olive oil
  • 1 tsp of thyme leaves, roughly chopped

Method

  • Step 1

    To make the porcini cream: Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat; add the shallot and garlic. Cook for 3-4 mins, until softened.
  • Step 2

    Add the mushrooms, thyme and cream, simmer for 2 mins.
  • Step 3

    Stir in the porcini water (try not to pour in any grit) and remove from the heat. Refrigerate until cool.
  • Step 4

    To make the carpaccio: Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add half the lemon juice and fry the beef all over until it has a golden crust.
  • Step 5

    Remove from the pan, season and wrap tightly in cling film to form a cylinder. Keep chilled; transfer to the freezer 1 hour before serving.
  • Step 6

    To serve, use a carving knife to cut thin slices. Lay on a plate, pour over the porcini cream, drizzle with truffle oil and a little lemon juice.
