COOK THE FRIES
Boil the kettle. Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place a pot for the skinny fries over a high heat. Fill with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and bring back up to the boil. Parcook the fries for 2-3 minutes. Remove on completion and place on paper towel, keeping the pot of water on the heat for step 2. Place on a roasting tray, coat in oil, season to taste, and spread out in a single layer. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until evenly crispy, gently turning at least twice.
GREEN BEANS
Pop the sliced green beans in the pot of boiling water for 2-3 minutes until cooked but still crunchy. Drain on completion and run under cold water to stop the cooking process.
TOAST Hazelnuts & DRESSING
Place the Hazelnuts in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 5-6 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion, set aside and roughly chop when cool enough to handle. In a small bowl, add ½ the mustard vinegar, 15ml of olive oil, and ½ a tsp of a sweetener of choice. Whisk to combine, season to taste and set aside.
COOK THE FILLET
Return the pan to a high heat. Rub some oil into the fillet until well coated. When the pan is hot, sear the fillet for about 5-6 minutes in total until browned all over, shifting as it colours. Place on a baking tray and roast in the hot oven for 5-7 minutes or until the fillet is cooked to your preference. Remove from the oven on completion and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season the slices.
BEARNAISE & DRESS SALAD
Return the pan to a low-medium heat with crème frâiche, remaining mustard vinegar, dried tarragon to taste, chopped Capers and 30ml of warm water. Gently simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat on completion and whisk in 15g of butter. If the sauce is too thick, loosen with warm water in 5ml increments. Season to taste (be careful when seasoning with salt as capers are quite salty). In a bowl add the rinsed green leaves, cooked green beans, drained feta and toss through the mustard-vinegar dressing.
PLATE
Plate up the crispy french fries alongside the fillet slices and drizzle over the béarnaise sauce. Garnish with the chopped Hazelnuts. Serve the green salad on the side. Enjoy.
