Smoked beef fillet with smoked Stilton pate & beetroot
Our smoked beef fillet with smoked Stilton pate and beetroot was the dish we created which won us the Meat Category at the YBFs National Awards - we're rather proud of it & think it would make a great starter!
Ingredients:
- 160g smoked beef fillet- Smoked olive oil for drizzling
- Cooked beetroot - allowed to cool & cut/sliced into smallish pieces
- 100g smoked Stilton pate (click for recipe)
- Handful of basil leaves
Preparation:
Prep time: 10 minutesCook time: 0 minutes
Serves: 4 people
Method:
- This is simply a matter of arranging the ingredients attractively on a plate - be as creative as you like!- Open packet of smoked beef fillet & arrange slices on a plate (this can either be on 4 individual plates or one large platter - which ever you prefer!)
- Dab blobs of the smoked stilton pate around the plate (click for recipe). If you prefer to not make the pate (although we think its worth it!), you can simply scatter some small chunks of our smoked Stilton over the plate
- Place the beetroot pieces around the plate. For our plate we used a bespoke corer to get cylinders of beetroot (this was a competition after all!), but you could slice, dice, chop your beetroot into what ever shape pieces you like!
- Scatter the basil leaves over the beef, pate and beetroot
- And drizzle with the smoked olive oil
You can either serve this on its own or with some fresh crusty bread and some of our delicious maple smoked olives - enjoy!
