Black Bean Sauce

Method

Beef Filet Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef filets with olive oil, salt, and black pepper on all sides.

Hasselback Preparation

  1. 2

    Make Hasselback Cuts

    Using a sharp knife, make deep, spaced cuts along the top of the beef filets, being careful not to cut all the way through. Insert slivers of garlic and sprigs of fresh thyme in between the cuts.

Cooking the Beef

  1. 3

    Grill the Beef

    Place the beef filets on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

Charred Brassica Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare Brassica

    Cut the brassica into florets, toss with olive oil and salt, and place on a hot grill or under a broiler for about 5-7 minutes, until charred and tender.

Brussels Sprouts Preparation

  1. 5

    Roast Brussels Sprouts

    Trim the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Toss with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast in the oven at 200°C (400°F) for 20-25 minutes or until crispy.

Onion Preparation

  1. 6

    Sauté Red Onion

    Slice the red onion and sauté in olive oil over medium heat until softened and caramelized, about 10 minutes.

Black Bean Sauce Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare Black Bean Sauce

    In a saucepan, combine black beans, soy sauce, garlic powder, ground ginger, and sesame oil. Heat over medium until warmed through, about 5-7 minutes.
