Beef Carpaccio

Cipollini Onions

Patatine (Potato Chips)

Pecorino Cheese

Pickled Peppers

Crispy Capers

Method

Prepare the Beef

  1. 1

    Slice the Beef

    Wrap the beef tenderloin in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm it up. Once firm, thinly slice the beef using a sharp knife. Arrange the slices on a large plate, overlapping them slightly.

  2. 2

    Season the Beef

    Drizzle the olive oil over the beef slices. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Prepare the Cipollini Onions

  1. 3

    Cook the Onions

    In a small saucepan, combine cipollini onions, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Cook over medium heat until the onions are tender and the mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

Make the Patatine (Potato Chips)

  1. 4

    Slice the Potatoes

    Thinly slice the potatoes using a mandoline or a sharp knife.

  2. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potato slices in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.

Prepare the Pecorino Cheese

  1. 6

    Grate the Cheese

    Grate the pecorino cheese using a fine grater or a microplane and set aside.

Prepare the Pickled Peppers

  1. 7

    Drain the Peppers

    If using jarred pickled peppers, drain them from the liquid and slice them if large. Set aside.

Make the Crispy Capers

  1. 8

    Fry the Capers

    In a small skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the capers and fry until they are crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 9

    Serve the Carpaccio

    Top the arranged beef slices with the cooked cipollini onions, grated pecorino cheese, pickled peppers, and crispy capers. Drizzle with a little more olive oil if desired and serve immediately.
