Spiral Rolled Beef Fillet With Fresh Pesto Recipes
SPIRAL-CUT FILLET OF BEEF WITH PESTO
If you have ever seen a Japanese sushi chef reduce a chunk of cucumber to a long, thin ribbon with a paring knife, you have seen a spiral cut. It's almost impossible to describe the technique in words, although you would grasp it easily if you could see it. Meats that have been spiral cut (also known as a jelly-roll cut), stuffed, rolled and sliced like a jelly roll are popular in butcher cases, so every professional butcher knows how to do this. Ask your butcher to prepare the meat for you. Michael's notes: A fillet of beef is an expensive cut, so this is a special-occasion dish. Go to the best butcher you know, show him or her the pictures of the dish in this book, and emphasize that you need 2 pounds after the meat has been trimmed of its chain and silverskin.

Steps:
- Ask the butcher to spiral cut or jelly-roll cut the fillet for you to create a flat, rectangular sheet of beef.
- Pound the meat with the heel of your hand to a thickness of about 1/2-inch. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the pesto evenly over the meat, leaving a 1-inch border along one of the long sides. Starting from the opposite long side, roll the meat into a log like a jelly roll.
- Using kitchen string and starting 1/2-inch from one end, tie the meat in 8 places at equal intervals of approximately 1-inch. Slice between the ties to create 8 pinwheels.
- Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill, preheat a gas grill, or preheat a stove-top cast-iron grill pan over high heat. Drizzle the meat with olive oil, then grill on both sides, turning once, until done, to your taste. Let rest for a few minutes, then remove the strings and serve.
- Prepare a bowl of ice water. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Put the basil in a sieve and plunge it into the boiling water, pushing the leaves down into the water and stirring them so they blanch evenly. Blanch for 15 seconds, then plunge the basil into the ice water to cool quickly. Drain immediately, squeeze the basil dry, and chop it roughly.
- In a blender, puree the basil with the oil, pine nuts, garlic, salt, and ascorbic acid. When well blended, add the cheese and whir briefly just to mix. Transfer to a bowl and adjust the seasoning.
- Yield: about 3/4 cup, enough for 1 pound pasta.
