BRESAOLA AND WILD ROCKET SALAD

Steps:

• Remove the leaves from the baby beetroots then boil the beetroot until just soft. Drain, cool and peel. Place the washed wild rocket on a serving plate and sprinkle over any small washed beetroot leaves. Slice any large beetroots into a bowl then add the smaller ones that have been left whole. Add the red wine vinegar, creme fraiche and salt and mix well. Place the beetroots over the rocket and drizzle over the sauce. Drape the bresaola over the salad then grate over the horseradish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and finish with some Parmesan shavings and a drizzle of olive oil.

BRESAOLA SALAD

Steps:

• Place arugula in a bowl and dress with lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil and salt. Divide the arugula among dinner plates or place on a serving platter and mound the greens up. Use a vegetable peeler to shred some cheese on top of the arugula. Arrange the meat in a thin layer all around the plate, draping it over the arugula. The plates or platter should look like a mound of beef. Thinly slice the artichokes, finely chop rosemary and parsley and slice the caper berries. Decoratively arrange the artichokes, chopped herbs and capers all over the meat. Drizzle the completed salad with aged balsamic vinegar and serve.

BRESAOLA AL CARPACCIO

Steps:

• Arrange bresaola slices, slightly overlapping on a large platter.
• Scatter mushrooms over bresaola, then sprinkle with parsley.
• Using a vegetable peeler, shave thin slivers of the cheese over bresaola.
• Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with black pepper.
• Serve with lemon wedges or squeeze lemon over all.

SHAVED PEAR, CHEESE & BRESAOLA SALAD

Steps:

• Toast the nuts and make the dressing first as they will need to cool. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the walnuts onto a baking tray and toast for 5 mins or until dark golden. Cool. Put the wine or Port in a small saucepan with the vinegar and sugar. Boil for 3 mins or until slightly syrupy (it will thicken as it cools, so don't get carried away), then take off the heat and set aside.
• When ready to serve, shave thin slices from the pears using a large sharp knife, mandolin or potato peeler. Mingle them together with the leaves, bresaola, cheese and nuts on a large platter. Season the dressing, then drizzle over the salad, followed by the oil. Enjoy straight away.
