Salt Crust Sirloin With Roasted Beetroot Horseradish Cream Recipes

HERB-CRUSTED ROAST BEEF WITH HORSERADISH CREAM

Steps:

• Special Equipment: food processor
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Season roast well with salt and pepper. In a medium saute pan over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons oil. When hot, sear roast on all sides, until nicely caramelized, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove roast to a sheet tray lined with a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, place garlic, parsley, thyme, oregano, rosemary, mustard powder, 1/2 cup oil, salt and pepper, to taste, in a food processor and pulse until mixture forms a paste.
• Rub paste all over roast. Bake in the oven until the roast is cooked to medium-rare or registers 125 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 45 minutes.
• Let roast rest 10 minutes before slicing and serve with Horseradish Cream.
• Horseradish Cream:
• In a small bowl, mix together all ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Yield: 1/2 cup

SALT-CRUSTED BEETS WITH HORSERADISH CRèME FRAîCHE

Steps:

• Whisk crème fraîche, horseradish, chopped chives, and Sherry wine vinegar in small bowl to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix coarse salt, horseradish, thyme, and orange peel in medium bowl. Place three 3-tablespoon mounds of salt mixture on small rimmed baking sheet, spacing apart. Top each salt mound with 1 beet, then cover all beets with remaining salt mixture, pressing very firmly with hands and forming crust around each beet, covering completely.
• Roast beets 1 3/4 hours. Remove from oven; crack salt crusts open and remove beets. Peel beets; cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange beet slices on platter. Serve with horseradish crème fraîche.

SALT CRUST SIRLOIN WITH ROASTED BEETROOT & HORSERADISH CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to fan 160C/conventional 180C/gas 4. Trim the beetroot, scrub well and pat dry with kitchen paper. Tip into a roasting tin and toss in 1 tbsp of the oil. Bake for 2 hours until tender. You can check by giving them a squeeze - if cooked they will feel slightly soft. Set aside.
• Sprinkle the surface of the meat with the sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat the remaining oil until very hot in a large frying pan, add the meat and sear on all sides until evenly browned. Transfer to another roasting tin and roast for 40-50 minutes for medium.
• Remove from the oven, set on a board, cover tightly with foil and leave to rest for 10 minutes. While the meat is resting, return the beetroot to the oven to reheat for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the horseradish with the crème fraîche and season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, thinly slice the beef and arrange on warmed plates. Cut each beetroot almost in half and set beside the beef. Spoon horseradish cream on top and sprinkle with parsley and chives. Serve with crushed potatoes with rocket and lemon.

GARLIC HORSERADISH SIRLOIN ROAST

Steps:

• With a sharp knife tip, cut about 40 slits all over roast.
• Stuff each slit with a garlic sliver.
• In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, horseradish, sage, salt and pepper, brush all over roast.
• Place onions in centre of roasting pan, place roast on top of onions.
• Roast in 325°F oven until thermometer registers 160°F for medium, about 2 hours.
• Transfer to cutting board and tent with foil, let stand for 10 minutes before carving.
• Skim fat from pan juices.
• Pour in beef stock and Worcestershire sauce, bring to boil, stirring scraping up brown bits.
• Whisk cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water, whisk into pan and cook, whisking until thickened and glossy, about 2 minutes.
• Strain and serve with beef.

HERB-CRUSTED SIRLOIN TIP ROAST W/ CREAMY HORSERADISH-CHIVE SAUCE

Steps:

• Instructions:.
• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Combine parsley, thyme, oil, garlic and black pepper; press evenly onto all surfaces of beef roast.
• Place roast on rack in shallow roasting pan.
• Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is centered in thickest part of beef. Do not add water or cover.
• Roast in 325°F oven 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours for medium rare, but watch it CLOSELY. I strongly recommend using a meat thermometer with this one.
• Meanwhile combine sauce ingredients in small bowl; cover and refrigerate.
• Remove roast when meat thermometer registers 140°F for medium rare. (Do not overcook.) Transfer roast to carving board; tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5°F to reach 145°F for medium rare.) Carve roast into THIN slices; season with salt, as desired. Serve with sauce.

SALT-ROASTED BEETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Remove greens from beets (reserve if making Amanda Cohen's Beet-Green Pesto). Scrub the beets clean. Place them in a deep roasting pan, then bury them completely in salt and pack it down. Bake 1 hour.
• Remove beets from oven. Insert a paring knife through the salt crust and into a beet to check for doneness. (On the off chance they're not done, return them to the oven and check every 10 minutes.) Crack the crust with a spoon, then remove the beets to a bowl, scraping the salt off them. Careful, they'll be very hot! (You can save the salt for future beet-roasting-just get rid of the clumps and store in an air-tight container in the fridge or freezer.) Rinse beets in water to remove any lingering clumps of salt. Allow to cool so they can be peeled.
• Peel beets with a paring knife, starting with the light-colored ones first, so you don't stain them with juice from the darker beets. First cut the root end, then peel the skin. The skin should peel off easily-a sign they're cooked properly. Cut into quarters, or, if they're smaller, leave whole.
• Arrange beets on a platter and serve.
