Beef tenderloin (US English), known as an eye fillet in Australasia, filet in France, Filet Mignon in Brazil, and fillet in the United Kingdom and South Africa, is cut from the loin of beef.

Wikipedia

The name alone – tenderloin – tells you that this cut of meat is tender, but it is also lean and rich in flavor when cooked. It’s pretty much the best cut of beef you can buy, and definitely one for special occasions.

In this recipe, the beef is butterflied and then covered with a mixture of cooked leeks, mushrooms, spinach, garlic, herbs, and Parmesan. The tenderloin is then rolled and tied before being roasted with a selection of vegetables.

You can then serve it as is, or add some mashed potatoes and a green vegetable side – and don’t forget the Beef Gravy! However you choose to dish up, you definitely won’t be disappointed!

For your convenience, any specialized or notable ingredients and equipment needed for this recipe have been listed below and linked to Amazon if available online.

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Vegetables – leeks, Portobello mushrooms, baby spinach, shallots, carrots (rainbow carrots if you can get them!), red onions
  • Aromatics – garlic, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, fresh parsley

  • Beef Tenderloin – this needs to be butterflied. To butterfly meat, it means cutting it almost in two but leaving the two parts connected. If you are not confident doing this yourself, you could ask your butcher to do this for you.

  9. Nestle the shallots and carrots around the beef and tuck in the fresh thyme sprigs. Add the beef broth and place in the pre-heated oven to roast until the beef reads between 125°F-130°F* for medium-rare on an instant-read thermometer, approximately 35-40 minutes. (The temperature will rise another 5-10 degrees while resting).

  10. Transfer the beef tenderloin to a serving platter and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. If necessary, return the vegetables to the oven for another 10-15 minutes, or until fork-tender.
  11. Transfer the veggies to the serving platter and pour the pan juices into a medium saucepan. Place over medium-high heat and reduce for approximately 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the butter and stir to emulsify the butter and thicken the sauce.
