BEEF FILLET STEAK

WITH MEDLEY PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Hi Everyone!

In this video I am going to share with you a Beef Fillet Steak With Medley Peppercorn Sauce recipe.

Beef fillet steak with creamy pepper sauce is an exquisite and indulgent dish that combines the tenderness of beef fillet with the rich and flavorful pepper sauce. This dish is often enjoyed with classic accompaniments like roasted potatoes and sautéed vegetables. It is a popular choice for special occasions or when you're looking to elevate a steak dinner into a gourmet experience.

Recipe Notes:

I used medley peppercorn (mixture of green, white and black peppercorns) for the sauce. You could use 1 type of peppercorn or a different mixture of peppercorns.
I used thick cream in the sauce recipe. You could use double cream or heavy cream, whichever is available.
I used olive oil in the sauce recipe, but you could use any other types of cooking oil.
I used a hand blender to puree the onions mixture. You can use other types of food processor that is available to you.
The fillet steak should only be flipped once, so you should determine the “well-doneness” of the steaks before you start cooking.
Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of steak. I used eye fillet steak with +/-3.8cm in thickness and weigh 180gm each.
Pan seared the eye fillet steak in a hot frying pan for 3 minutes on each side for rare, 4 minutes for medium rare, 5 minutes for medium well and 6 minutes for well-done. I prefer medium rare, so that is 4 minutes for me.
I would highly recommend that you tie each eye fillet steak with a cooking string/twine even though it is an extra step. The outer part of the beef will usually cook faster than the middle part does. You wouldn’t want the 2-inches of the center to be the medium rare that you preferred while the rest of it is well-done. A quick tie helps you to cook the steak evenly.
Rest the meat between 5 to 10 minutes to allow time for the redistribution of juices within the meat.
