Steps:
- Put the beef in a container just big enough to fit snugly. Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl and tip over the beef. Cover and chill, turning and basting as often as possible. Leave for 24-72 hrs.
- Pour the Port and wine into a large pan and simmer until reduced to a glaze. - this will take about 20 mins. Heat the oil in a separate large pan and, when almost smoking, add the beef scraps and cook until dark golden. Add the shallots, garlic, peppercorns and herbs. Fry for a few mins until starting to brown, then add the reduced alcohol and stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 25 mins. Strain into a clean pan, then simmer for 8-10 mins until thickened. Season to taste and chill until needed.
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Remove the fillet from the marinade and brush off the herbs, reserving them and the garlic for later. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan. When almost smoking, add the fillet, season with 2 tsp salt and fry for 5-7 mins, turning every so often.
- Add the butter, cube by cube, and - when foaming - baste the fillet, turning regularly. When the fillet is caramelised, put in a roasting tin with the reserved herbs and garlic, and cook in the oven for 8-12 mins, turning every 4 mins and basting. To check that the beef is done, insert a probe thermometer into the centre - it should read 55-60C for medium rare. Transfer to a board, wrap loosely in foil and rest for 20 mins.
- Return the tin to the oven until the butter is hot. Before serving, roll the fillet in it. Serve with the sauce, croquettes, carrots and garlic.

- Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.

Strain the sauce into a small bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids in the strainer and return the sauce to the saucepan and bring back to a slow simmer. Cut the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter into small 1/2-inch chunks and whisk in the sauce a little at a time. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Fillet of beef, also known as tenderloin, is a premium cut of meat that is known for its tenderness and flavor. It is important to choose a high-quality cut of beef that is well-marbled, as this will help to ensure that the meat is juicy and flavorful.
- Sear the beef properly: Searing the beef helps to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices. To properly sear the beef, heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat and add a little oil. Season the beef with salt and pepper and then sear it for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is browned. Make a flavorful red wine sauce: The red wine sauce is what really makes this dish special. To make the sauce, simply simmer red wine, beef broth, shallots, garlic, and herbs in a saucepan until it has reduced by half. The sauce should be rich and flavorful, with a slight sweetness from the wine.
- Cook the beef to the desired doneness: Fillet of beef is a relatively tender cut of meat, so it can be cooked quickly. However, it is important to cook it to the desired doneness, as overcooking can make the meat tough. For medium-rare, cook the beef for 8-10 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the beef rest before serving: Once the beef is cooked, it is important to let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
Conclusion:
Fillet of beef in red wine sauce is a classic dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The tender beef, flavorful sauce, and simple presentation make this dish a surefire winner. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you are looking for a special meal to impress your friends or family, give fillet of beef in red wine sauce a try. You won't be disappointed.
