Yield: 1 servings

Measure Ingredient
200 grams Beef eye fillet
200 grams Peeled pumpkin
4 \N Threads saffron; (4 to 5)
120 millilitres Beef jus
1 teaspoon Green peppercorns
\N \N Salt and pepper

1. To make pumpkin crisps, use a potato peeled and peel "ribbons" of pumpkin. Heat oil to 180deg.C. and deep fry pumpkin until golden crisp. Set aside.

2. Cut the remaining pumpkin into pieces and boil in a pot.

3. In a hot pan seal the eye fillet on all sides. Place meat in the oven for approximately 20 minutes at 200deg.C. for a medium steak. If the pan is not ovenproof, transfer meat to a tray for the oven.

4. When pumpkin is soft, mash with the saffron. Add salt and pepper to taste. Place mash on a plate, then top with the beef. In the same pan, add the jus and peppercorns and reduce slightly. Pour over beef and garnish with pumpkin crisps.
