Ingredients
- 1/2 lb beef fillet in 1 piece, 225 g, filet mignon
- 3 tbsp capers drained (optional), 45 ml
- 3 tbsp finely chopped onion or scallion 45 ml
- 1 bunch arugala
- 30 g Parmesan cheese shaved
- 1 large lemon cut into wedges for garnish
- 1 pinch Salt to taste
- 1 pinch ground pepper to taste
- Extra-virgin olive oil to taste
Instructions
- Wrap the beef tightly in plastic wrap and place in the freezer until very firm and almost frozen, about 1 hour.
- Slice as thinly as possible with a very sharp knife.
- The slices should be almost transparent, so flatten them by pounding them gently if you aren't able to slice them thinly enough.
- Arrange the slices on serving plates and drizzle lightly with olive oil.
- Season with salt and pepper and add capers, chopped onion, or Parmesan curls if desired.
- Serve with lemon wedges.
