Time 2h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 pounds filet of beef, trimmed and tied
3/4 cup good olive oil, plus extra for the beef
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 extra-large egg yolks, at room temperature
2 teaspoons good Dijon mustard, at room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped garlic (3 cloves)
2 anchovy fillets, drained
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, at room temperature (2 to 3 lemons)
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup freshly grated Italian Parmesan cheese, plus shaved Parmesan for garnish
2 tablespoons capers, drained
3 cups baby arugula
Flaked sea salt, such as Maldon, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Rub the beef with olive oil and sprinkle all over with 2 teaspoons kosher salt and 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Heat a saute pan over high heat and sear the filet on all sides, turning it with tongs. Wrap the beef in plastic wrap and freeze for 2 hours, turning once to freeze evenly.
  • Meanwhile, place the egg yolks, mustard, garlic, anchovies, lemon juice, 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process for 15 seconds. Combine the 3/4 cup olive oil and the canola oil in a glass measuring cup. With the food processor running, slowly pour the oils down the feed tube in a thin stream. Add the grated Parmesan and pulse to combine.
  • Remove the string from the beef and slice it very thin with a sharp slicing or smoked salmon knife. Place 5 slices on each dinner plate in a single layer. Drizzle the beef generously with the dressing and (in this order) sprinkle with the capers, kosher salt, pepper, arugula, shaved
  • Parmesan, and sea salt. Serve at room temperature with a pitcher of extra dressing on the side.

BEEF CARPACCIO WITH PEARS AND ARUGULA



Beef Carpaccio with Pears and Arugula image

Arugula brings its crisp, peppery qualities to a plate of Forelle pears, beef carpaccio, and shaved Parmesan. Tossing the greens in olive oil and lemon juice creates a citrusy tart complement for the fruit; the lemon also keeps the pear creamy-looking.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 whole beef tenderloin (about 1 pound)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 Forelle pears (about 1 pound total)
6 ounces arugula, trimmed
4 ounces Parmesan cheese, shaved

Steps:

  • Wrap beef in plastic, and chill in freezer until firm, about 1 hour. Using a very sharp knife, cut beef across the grain into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Gently pound slices between pieces of waxed paper. Refrigerate beef slices between pieces of waxed paper 1 hour (up to 2 hours).
  • Whisk together oil, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Cut pears into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Toss with 2 tablespoons lemon juice in a bowl. Arrange beef in a single layer on serving plates. Drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Toss arugula with the dressing, and arrange over beef. Arrange pears over arugula. Top with Parmesan; drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Serve with lemon wedges.
