Fillet of beef in a rosemary crust (Slideshow version)

Fillet of beef in a rosemary crust : Photo of step #26

Overview:

This is a sophisticated way to cook beef fillet (tenderloin): we make an unleavened bread dough (which will not be eaten), adding plenty of salt and lots of roughly chopped springs of rosemary.

The beef fillet is seared all over in a frying pan, then wrapped in the dough before being cooked in a hot oven.
