Wellington beef and camel

Ingredients for 4 people:

  • 750g beef fillet

  • 400g of button mushrooms

  • 6-8 slices of raw ham

  • 1 tbsp strong mustard

  • 500g of puff pastry

  • 2 egg yolks

  • Olive oil

  • Salt, pepper
     

Beef Wellington preparation:

We begin with the mushroom duxelles:

  • Roughly chop the mushrooms and blend them until you get a smooth paste.

  • Season and cook in a pan without fat for about 10 minutes (to remove the moisture).

  • Keep refrigerated.
     

And now, let's move on to the beef:

  • Season the beef (salt, pepper) and brown it on all sides in a very hot pan. Let it cool, then brush it with mustard (be careful, the beef should only be browned but raw in the center).

  • On the work surface, unroll a piece of cling film and arrange the prosciutto slices on it, slightly overlapping. Using a spatula, spread the mushrooms over the prosciutto, then place the beef fillet on top, in the center.

  • Carefully roll the cured ham and mushrooms around the beef to form a sausage shape. Roll the edges tightly to seal the plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.

  • Unroll the puff pastry (if store-bought, use a rectangular pastry), remove the film paper and place the beef in the center of the pastry.

  • Brush the edges of the puff pastry with egg yolk before folding it around the beef. Turn the pastry over to hide the opening and trim any excess.

  • Brush with egg yolk and, if you wish, make a few decorative touches with the back of a knife.
    Sprinkle with fleur de sel and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (390°F) for about 35 minutes. The puff pastry should be nicely browned, but the beef should remain rare (approximately 53-55°C/137-131°F internally).

  • Remove the beef Wellington from the oven and let it cool for 15 minutes before slicing it into nice thick slices. Serve with sautéed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and a Camel beer!

Pulled pork in cooked wine and SWAF style

Ingredients for 4-6 people:

  • 1 kg of pork shoulder

  • 2 onions

  • 2.5 dl of Swaf beer

  • 1 generous tablespoon of cooked wine (raisined)

  • 1 teaspoon of chili powder

  • 1 generous tablespoon of tomato paste

  • Salt, sugar

  • Freshly ground black pepper

  • Olive oil

 
Preparation of pulled pork:

  • Coat the meat with olive oil. Season it all over with black pepper, salt, and a generous pinch of sugar. Refrigerate for a few hours (ideally overnight).

  • Take the meat out of the fridge 1 hour before cooking.

  • Peel the onions, cut them in half, then into strips.

  • In a cast iron casserole dish, brown them for 5 minutes in olive oil; this will give a caramelized taste to the sauce.

  • Place the meat on top, add the beer, then cover the casserole dish and place it in a preheated oven at 120°C for 6 hours. This will make the meat tender, juicy, and very easy to cook.

  • Remove the meat from the pot and shred it with a fork.

  • Meanwhile, add the chili pepper and tomato paste to the sauce and reduce it over medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes; add the cooked wine and cook for a few more seconds. The sauce should have a slightly syrupy consistency to coat the meat well. To smooth and thicken the sauce, use an immersion blender (optional).

  • Add the shredded meat to the pot and mix.

 
Ingredients for bao buns:

  • 500g wheat flour

  • 175 ml of milk

  • 1 teaspoon of sugar

  • 1 cube of fresh baker's yeast

  • 1 teaspoon of salt

  • 100g of butter

  • 2 whole eggs

 
Preparation for bao buns:

  • In a bowl, mix the lukewarm milk with the sugar and yeast.

  • Mix with the dry ingredients and add the eggs then the butter.

  • Let it rise for 1 hour then form about ten balls.

  • Let it rise a second time (20 minutes).

  • Steam them for 20 minutes at 100% humidity.

  • Open in half and fill with meat.
