Elevate your Sunday roast with a spring-inspired ricotta, lemon, chive, and oregano stuffed scotch fillet.
Ingredients:
  • 1kg scotch fillet
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 180.00 gm firm ricotta
  • 2 tsp finely grated lemon rind
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 40.00 ml roughly chopped fresh oregano
  • 20.00 ml roughly chopped chives, plus extra chopped chives to garnish
Instructions:
  • Prepare the beef fillet by trimming excess fat and sinew. Lay it on a chopping board and carefully slice a lengthwise flap, ensuring not to slice all the way through. Season both sides of the meat generously with salt and pepper.
  • Combine ricotta, lemon rind, and egg yolk in a bowl. Spread the mixture evenly inside the cut flap and then sprinkle with oregano and chives.
  • Encase the ricotta mixture in the beef by rolling it and then secure it tightly with string.
  • Preheat oven to 180°C. Sear the fillet in a hot oiled pan for about 5 minutes until browned. Transfer to baking dish and roast for 40 minutes until cooked to your liking. Rest, cool, refrigerate, slice, and serve garnished with chives.
