Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Prepare (1) as many tartlet-crusts as there are tournedos;
  2. (2) a garnish of asparagus-heads, cohered with butter, in the proportion of one heaped tablespoonful per tartlet.
  3. Fry the tournedos in butter, and dish them upon fried crusts.
  4. On each of them set a tartlet garnished with asparagus-heads, with a slice of truffle in the middle.
