1
Prepare the Beef Tenderloin
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the beef tenderloin generously with salt and black pepper.
2
Sear the Beef
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the beef tallow. Once hot, sear the beef tenderloin on all sides until browned (about 3-4 minutes per side).
3
Roast the Beef
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
4
Make the Shallot Jam
In a separate saucepan, add the chopped shallots and cook over medium heat until softened and caramelized (around 10-15 minutes). Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
5
Prepare the Potato
Peel and chop the potatoes into small cubes. Boil them in salted water until tender (about 15 minutes), then drain and mash with a bit of salt and butter.
6
Cook the Green Peas
Blanch the green peas in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, then drain and toss with truffle oil, salt, and pepper.
7
Serve
Slice the beef tenderloin and serve on a plate with a dollop of foie gras butter on top, a side of mashed potatoes, shallot jam, and the truffle-infused green peas.
