Ingredients:
1 tbsp
Coriander Seed (toasted)1 tbsp
Cumin Seed (toasted)1 tbsp
Cayenne Pepper2 bunches
Spring Onion (stems removed, cut in 1/2)1 cup
Prepared Horseradish1 cup
Creme Fraiche1 cup
Mayonnaise1 bunch
Chives (finely chopped)Directions:
1
Watch how to make this recipe
2
Preheat grill to medium-high
3
Grind the toasted spices in a spice grinder and add to a small bowl with cayenne
4
Fold the tail end of the beef under to create a roll of meat that is even in thickness
5
Tie with butcher's twine to secure
6
This will help the meat to cook evenly and to be handled easily
7
Once the tenderloin is tied, season the beef generously with salt and rub with the spice mix
8
Give it a little massage with extra-virgin olive oil
9
Place the tenderloin on the preheated grill and grill on all sides until it is very brown and charred on the outside
10
When the tenderloin is nice and brown on all the sides, move it to a cooler part of the grill and shut the grill and cook until it is cooked to the desired doneness (medium rare for me), about 20 to 25 minutes or so for medium-rare
11
If cooking indoors, put the meat in a preheated 375 degrees F oven to roast to the desired doneness, about 125 to 130 degrees F for medium-rare
12
Remove the meat from the grill or oven to a cutting board and let rest for about 10 minutes before slicing; this will keep the tenderloin very juicy
13
Meanwhile, toss the onions with extra-virgin olive oil and salt and place on the preheated grill
14
Grill until they are soft and charred
15
Remove from the grill and reserve
16
To serve, remove the string from the beef
17
Cut into relatively thin slices, but thicker if you prefer
18
Serve 3 slices of beef, for each serving, with the grilled onions and a spoonful of Horseradish Cream
