Truffle Beef Carpaccio Recipe
Inspired by Chef Dean Williams, Meelup Farmhouse
Serves: 2-3
Preparation Time: 50 minutes
Cooking Time: None
Ingredients:
- Beef Fillet (preferably grass-fed Margaret River beef) – 200 grams
- Celeriac – 1 medium-sized
- Truffle Hill Truffle Aioli – 2 tablespoons
- Olive Oil – for drizzling
- Salt and Pepper – to taste
- Pecorino Cheese – for garnishing
- Fresh Truffle (optional, for truffle season) – for garnishing
Instructions:
Prepare the Beef:
- Take a section of beef fillet and wrap it tightly in cling film.
- Place the wrapped beef in the freezer for 30-40 minutes until it is firm but not frozen.

Make the Celeriac Remoulade:
- Peel the celeriac and slice it into thin matchsticks.

Assemble the Dish:
- Lay the beef slices flat on a plate.
- Season the beef with a little salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Alternatively, truffle oil can be used for an extra truffle flavour.
- Place a generous amount of the celeriac remoulade in the centre of the beef slices.
