  • 20 x red, golden and candy stripe baby beetroot
  • vegetable oil
  • salt, to taste
  • 6 x 200g beef sirloin steaks
  • 180g cooked ox tongue
  • 180ml beef jus
  • carrot tops, to garnish

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

To make the crudités, take 2 each of the carrots and baby beetroot and slice thinly on a mandoline. Set aside in ice water.

3

Peel the remaining carrots, toss them in oil and roast in the oven for 5 minutes.

4

Boil the remaining beetroot in salted water until tender and peel while warm.

5

Grill the steak in a hot pan to caramelise nicely on each side. When the desired temperature has been reached, set the steak aside to rest for 3 – 5 minutes.

6

In the meantime, reheat the beetroot and carrots and arrange on the plate.

7

Reheat the tongue in the beef jus and arrange in between the beetroot and carrots.
