Truffle Aioli

Method

Crostini

  1. 1

    Prepare the Baguette

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick pieces.

  2. 2

    Olive Oil and Salt

    Brush each slice with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.

  3. 3

    Bake the Crostini

    Place the slices on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crisp.

Beef Tenderloin

  1. 4

    Prepare the Beef

    Season the beef tenderloin with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 5

    Grill the Beef

    Preheat your grill to high heat. Place the seasoned beef on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

  3. 6

    Rest the Beef

    Once cooked, remove the beef from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Truffle Aioli

  1. 7

    Make the Aioli

    In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, truffle oil, minced garlic (1 clove), and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Slice the Beef

    Once the beef has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.

  2. 9

    Assemble the Crostini

    Spread a generous amount of truffle aioli on each crostini, top with a slice of grilled beef, and garnish with fresh chives and additional sea salt to taste.
