BEEF FILLET CROSTINI ASIAN STYLE
For my 46th birthday my husband treated me to a one-evening cooking course. It must have been one of the most enjoyable evenings I've ever had. This recipe is from that course. This was the appetizer and a very popular one at that. Don't let the long list of ingredients scare you, it's mostly herbs, spices and condiments for flavoring. Prep time does not include marinating time, that you have to figure out for yourself depending on your own personal tastes and time.
