Roast Beef Tenderloin With Mushroom Ragout Food

BEEF TENDERLOIN FILET WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• For the beef tenderloin: Preheat a saute pan or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Lightly oil the steaks. Place the steaks in the very hot pan and get a good sear on both sides. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the pan and let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes.
• For the mushroom sauce: Drain the fat from the pan. Add the shallots, bring the pan to a medium heat and season with salt. Cook the shallots for 3 to 4 minutes, and then add in the garlic. Cook the garlic and shallots together for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms, season with salt and stir to coat with the oil. Cook the mushrooms until they look soft and wilted, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the veal demi-glace. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes; the consistency should be almost as thick as gravy. If it is still thin, let it simmer for another couple of minutes until it does thicken.
• Check the consistency by coating a spoon with the sauce, turn the spoon over and draw a line down the middle of the spoon with your finger. If your finger leaves a track down the spoon without moving, then it is ready! Taste and adjust the salt, if needed.
• For the twice-baked potato mash and green beans: Add the potatoes to a pot of salted water. Turn the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain the potatoes well and pass through a food mill or ricer. Stir in the sour cream and heavy cream. Fold in the broccoli and Cheddar. Taste and season with salt as needed.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until just tender, about 2 minutes. Remove from the water and immediately add to a salted ice bath. Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add green beans and saute quickly until heated through.
• Serve the filets with the mushroom sauce on top and the twice-baked potato mash and green beans on the side.

"SURF AND TURF" BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH MUSHROOM AND ASPARAGUS RAGOUT AND LOBSTER MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in heavy, large skillet over high heat. Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper. Sear the beef in the skillet for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet and let rest. Add the butter and mushrooms to the same skillet and saute until the mushrooms are browned, about 4 minutes. Then, add the shallots, garlic and thyme, and saute for 2 minutes. Add the Beef Reduction to the mushrooms and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-high and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the asparagus and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the Lobster Mashed Potatoes among 4 plates. Arrange the beef fillets on the top of the potatoes. Spoon the mushroom and asparagus ragout over the beef and serve.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Brush a heavy, large roasting pan with olive oil. Place the shank pieces in the prepared pan. Scatter the carrots and onions around the shanks. Roast until the meat is brown, about 25 minutes. Transfer the meat and vegetables to a heavy, large saucepan. Place the roasting pan over medium heat. Add the red wine and stir 1 minute, scraping up any browned bits, and then add to the meat and vegetables. Add the beef broth, 4 cups water and thyme sprigs. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the liquid is reduced to 2 cups, about 3 hours. Strain the broth. Chill uncovered until cool, then cover and keep chilled.
• Cook the lobster in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until just opaque in the center, about 7 minutes. Transfer the lobster to a work surface and cool slightly. Remove the lobster meat from the shell. Cut the meat into 1-inch pieces. Bring 1/3 cup milk to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Add the lobster meat and set aside. Add the potatoes to a large pot of cold, salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes, return to the pot and mash. Add the butter and the remaining milk. Mix together well. Add the lobster mixture to the mashed potatoes. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.

BEEF AND MUSHROOM RAGOUT

Steps:

• Prepare the spatzle as directed in the above recipe.
• Heat a large heavy skillet over high heat until it is very hot, and add the vegetable oil. Saute the beef strips, tossing frequently, for 2 minutes, or until seared. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more, tossing, until they give up their liquid. Add the mustard, cream, salt, a generous amount of pepper, and the reduced veal stock. Stir to mix thoroughly and remove from the heat.
• Make a bed of the spatzle in each of 6 shallow heated bowls, top with a generous spoonful of the ragout and lots of sauce, and sprinkle a few scallions over each.
