COOKING OF BEEF TENDERLOIN MEDALLIONS WITH VEGETABLE SAUTÉ AND BARBECUE SAUCE


Beef medallions is traditional exquisite delicacy of French cuisine loved by many people. Despite the fact that beef medallions are served in most expensive and elite restaurants of the world, everyone can cook it at its own kitchen- there is no any difficulty.

There are many various recipes of beef medallions cooking: in multicooker, in stove, with apples, mushrooms, flavoured with cheese, garlic, pepper, mustard sauce… The list is endless.

Today Maksim Agureev, Chef of Roof Bar restaurant, will show us his recipe. And we will seat on the roof where the restaurant is located. What a beautiful view it has!

Maksim made his choice rather quickly, having pulled out a couple of frying pans from multiple ware provided for him. He chose a frying pan with Italian non-stick coating Whitford Eterna and gill frying pan with German non-stick coating Greblon Non-Stick C2+ from Traditsiya/ Tradition line.

IT IS RECOMMENDED TO MARINADE THE MEAT BEFORE.

Marinade may be prepared in the following way. Somewhat tenderized meat pieces are poured over with soya sauce (this allows not to use salt). Then orange juice is squeezed (right on the meat). It is necessary to add spices: pepper, dill, basil and garlic and ginger (that are known for their preserving and fat burning properties, moreover, ginger prevents occurrence of carcinogens in course of preparation of meat).
STEP 1

CUTTING OF INGREDIENTS

First of all, we have to take bell pepper and cut into bars of approximately six-seven centimeters. Cut internal white part of the bell – we will use it later.

Then cut onion into bars or stripes.

We asked Maksim about the secret of cutting onion with no tears. He smiled and said that he has already obtained the immunity to onion, therefore, he does not need any special means.
STEP 2

START FRY ONION AND PEPPER

Prior to continue to cut other ingredients let’s start frying onion and pepper. Everything is as usual: cut onion put into warmed up oil and then add pepper. At times, stir the content of the pan. Maksim prefers frying on the olive oil, because olive provides a good aroma to any dish. However, if you don’t have the olive oil at home, you may use the usual one.



STEP 3

CONTINUE CUTTING

Slice pear, we will use it later, because it takes much less time to get ready than onion and pepper.

Cut champignons and garlic into cubes and pour them out into the frying pan. Don’t forget to stir! If you feel that there is no enough oil –add some more. Attractive aroma is already could be felt from the kitchen.

Add the sliced pear. Salt and pepper it. Continue to stir and add some barbecue sauce. The vegetables are ready.

Total time of frying – about five-six minutes. It is recommended to follow the sequence of adding the ingredients, because of different time for cooking the products.



STEP 4

COOKING MEAT

Put our ribbed frying-grill pan with oil on the cooker for warming up.

Now, we will begin to cut our beef tenderloin into medallions. Medallion size is about a half of the man’s palm, thickness – 1-2 centimeters. Pepper and salt. When the oil is warmed up put the beef into the frying pan and fry from the both sides during four-five minutes.
It is very convenient to cook on ridged frying pan because the ribbing allows the oxygen supply under the meat, therefore, it can be roasted evenly, and the taste is more prominent.

THE DISH IS READY!

We thought that it would be more difficult and Maksim surprised us – it was easy enough and at the same time tasty and moist. Hope, you will like it!

ENJOY YOUR MEAL!
