Carpaccio of Beef Fillet

Only 20 minutes to make

This may look expensive but a single 6oz or perhaps 8oz piece of fillet steak done in this way is a great supper for two, if presented as a sharing plate with some fresh crusty bread and butter and a nice glass of red or a good quality beer to wash it down. It’s a very special experience. You can push the boat out and do more with a bigger sharing platter and perhaps some sautéed new potatoes if you have a (slightly) larger but still special group coming to call.
