Recipe

Spiced Sirloin with Tomato and Pepper sauce, Pickled Celeriac and Almond Butter.

Here we have a tasty main course with really good accompaniments. If you serve this on its own, you can of course serve it with some nice potatoes to ensure nobody goes hungry. You can of course grill the meat if you prefer, this time of year the grill is always hot! If you can’t get hold of Feuille de Brick, you can replace it with filo pastry. The recipe is suitable for about 10 guests.
