Alpine Oxen Crépinette

Preparation

1. For the chicken farce: emulsify the QimiQ Marinade, sunflower oil and salt with a hand blender. Put the chicken breast fillets and 60 g of the ready-made marinade in a vacuum bag and allow to steep for about 12 hours. Cut the marinated meat into cubes and freeze. Finely blend the frozen chicken cubes. Ensure that the mass remains as cold as possible so that it can be spread. Cut the mushrooms into cubes and fry well without oil until there is no more liquid. Fold the cooled mushrooms into the fine chicken mixture. Add the QimiQ Cream Base, whipped cream, salt and cayenne pepper and mix well.
2. For the alpine ox crépinette: sear the beef fillet and season with salt and pepper. Lay out the pig caul on the work surface, coat approx. 0.5 cm thick with chicken farce and roll the beef fillet firmly and evenly into the mixture. Now wrap the fillet rolled up in the pig caul in cling film and seal it as tightly as possible. Bake the roll in the oven at 110 ° C (fan oven) for about 40 minutes. (The cooking time can vary depending on the desired cooking point.) Tip: the core temperature should ideally be 52 °C.
3. For the glazed vegetables: select the vegetables depending on the season and taste. Wash and cut into large pieces. Blanch according to type in well-salted water (boil briefly and then quench in ice water). Before serving, heat the vegetables with the stock and butter in a pan and season with herbs and spices. Tip: blanch white/light vegetables first.
4. For the red wine jus: roast the coarsely chopped vegetables and pieces of meat with oil in a large saucepan until dark brown. Add the onions and garlic and roast until everything is nicely coloured. Caramelize the mixture with the cane sugar, deglaze with the red and port wine and allow to reduce. Add the veal stock, demiglace, thyme, bay leaf and juniper berries, reduce to the desired consistency. Strain and season with salt and pepper.
5. For the celery butter sauce: mix the QimiQ Cream Base, celery juice and the QiQ Base for Butter Sauce with a whisk, bring to the boil and set aside. Add the butter and mix with a hand blender or whisk.
6. For the potato sponge: preheat the oven to 175 ° C (fan oven). Wash, boil, peel and mash the potatoes. Beat the egg whites until stiff. Mix the egg yolk, butter, QimiQ Cream Base, potato mixture and spices together. Sieve in the flour and fold in the beaten egg white. Spread finger thick onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes. Cut into cubes and fry briefly in butter.
7. Plating: Drizzle the red wine jus in the middle of the plate and place a piece of the crépinette on top. Arrange the potato sponge and glazed vegetables on the plate as desired and refine with the celery butter sauce. Garnish with fresh herbs.
