Chestnut crust:

  • For the chestnut crust, first chop the chestnuts. Then melt 3 tablespoons of butter and add 3 tablespoons of Parmesan to the chopped chestnuts.
  • Leave the beef fillet tied at room temperature for half an hour, then sear it on both sides (about 1 minute per side) and pour the chestnut mixture onto the fillets.
  • Leave everything at 180 ° C with circulating air on the oven shelf at the desired cooking level. About 30 minutes are sufficient for medium.
  • In the meantime, the potatoes are fried in the pan until they are crispy and then seasoned.
  • Now warm up the red wine jus and prepare the pre-cooked Romanesco in a separate pan with a little butter and 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar.
