Get Stuffed!

Any meal that includes steak and bacon on the same plate makes for a very happy Neil, which is why this week's Nana's Recipe Drawer creation had to be her Stuffed Scotch Fillet.

Handwritten (and slightly hard to read), the recipe was fairly quick and easy to recreate. We teamed it with some golden polenta batons (made with plenty of parmesan) and sauteed green beans.

For me, it was another version of mushroom ragout (spot the mushie freak!) with fresh shitakes, oyster mushrooms, dried Chinese mushrooms and good ol' buttons from our trip to Norton Street Grocer. I added some nice peppery rocket rocket too.
Next time we'll probably cook the meat for a little less than the hour recommended as Neil prefers his cow medium-rare, whereas way-back-when the preference for meat was well done.

Roll on next time (and I may even try some).
