Ingredients

800g Extra Special Chateaubriand Beef Fillet

75g dried breadcrumbs

2 tsp Extra Special Horseradish Sauce

2 tsp chopped thyme leaves

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

1 lemon, zested

40g butter, melted

2 tbsp sunflower oil

250g pouch Extra Special Concentrated Beef Stock

25g Epicure Creative Cooks Mixed Mushrooms

1 shallot, finely chopped

100ml red wine

4 tbsp double cream

Method

1
Remove the beef from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Pre-heat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Mix the breadcrumbs, horseradish, thyme, cayenne, lemon zest and butter together in a bowl.
2
Heat the oil in a frying pan and brown the beef all over. Remove from the pan and season. Keep the juices – you’ll need them to make the red wine sauce.
3
Put the beef in a roasting tin. Top with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing down so it sticks. Cook in the oven for 20 minutes (medium rare), 25 minutes (medium) or 30-35 minutes (well done). Leave in a warm place for 15 minuets to rest.
4
Meanwhile, make the sauce. Dilute the stock with 300ml water in a pan, then heat until boiling. Pour over the dried mushrooms in a bowl. Leave for 15 minutes. Drain, reserving the liquid. Chop the mushrooms.
5
Put the shallot, wine and reserved juices in the pan used for the beef. Cook until reduced by half. Add the mushrooms and cream. Cook gently for 1 minute before serving.
