  • On the menu is a succulent rare beef fillet with salsa verde served with roasted truffle, new potatoes.

  • Right, Jack, get that pan nice and hot.

  • Recognize that? - Fillet of beef.

  • This is a Rolls Royce cut of beef so we've got to treat it with some respect. - Nice.

  • Okay, mop up all that seasoning into the pan and get that really nice and hot.

  • Hello, Tills. Kiss, kiss and what's that, Holls. What's her name? - Hi, guys.

  • Rosemary. A little bit of garlic and thyme in there.

  • Cooking with these aromatic herbs and garlic will add flavor to the beef.

  • Because it's a fillet of beef, there's hardly any fat on there so you sear it quickly. Ends as well. Get seared.

  • I'm gonna put some butter in there, continue frying all those herbs.

  • Now base that with the butter. See?

  • Dad, are we're just having this or we're gonna have something with it?

  • Now we're gonna serve some beautiful baked potatoes with truffle and the salsa verde.

  • Into the oven (for) eight to ten minutes. That's all.

  • Next. My super special baked new potatoes.

  • Wash and drain small new potatoes and tip into a baking tray.

  • Drizzle with olive oil and seasoned with a touch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  • Place into an oven preheated at 180 degrees Celsius and bake for 35 minutes until crisp on the outside and soft all the way through.

  • Transfer to your serving dish and great over fresh parmesan cheese.

  • Last but not least, shaved gorgeous, earthy black truffle slivers onto the cheesy potatoes.

  • Baked new potatoes with a lavish twist. Indulgent but couldn't be simpler to make.

  • Alright, salsa verde. Anchovies, a little touch of anchovy oil in there.

  • Okay, after that, we got some capers. Garlic in with the anchovies and the capers.

  • Okay, a touch of salt. Why only a touch?

  • Because you could have salt the anchovies. - That's right.

  • Hold, Holls. Dijon mustard, sherry vinegar, give that a nice mint.

  • Now this is where it starts to go to a complete different level. Some fresh mint and some fresh parsley.

  • I want half of it in there, pureed. A touch of olive oil in there, the rest of the mint.

  • Salt. Pepper.

  • Excited? - Yep.

  • Now taste. Holls? - I'd love some to taste.

  • Might need to try a tiny bit more. - Just to check.

  • Stop. You can't kiss any boys now.

  • Before the kids polish off all the salsa verde, I need a distraction and I think my beef will do the job nicely.

  • Look at this baby. Hot, Holls.

  • Look at that. Sears and look how juicy and tender that is.

  • Take that out and let that sit on there.

  • A little spoon just while it sits and rest, put some salsa verde.

  • As the beef cools down, that salsa verde marinades.

  • That goes to the table very carefully, please. Tills, take over the baked potatoes, please.

  • This is my ultimate special occasion dinner.

  • The tenderest rare beef fillet with punchy salsa verde served with extravagant truffled new potatoes.

  • It's always a special occasion in our house that my wonderful mom and her husband Jimmy turn up for dinner.

  • Sit down, guys, please.

  • This is a definite special occasion, cheers now.
