Steak and Leek Vol au Vents with
Hollandaise Sauce
Serves 4
1 tbsp olive oil + extra for coating steak
1 brown onion, diced
1 leek, chopped
3 cloves garlic, crushed
½ bunch thyme, chopped
½ cup white wine
1 tbsp butter
2x250g fillet steak, sealed
Salt and pepper
4 large vol au vents cases
Hollandaise sauce
250g unsalted butter
4 egg yolks
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp tarragon leaves
Pinch salt and pepper
1.
To make the hollandaise sauce, melt
butter in the microwave and only use
the yellow part.
2.
Crack eggs in a bowl, add the vinegar
and tarragon leaves and place it over
a pot of boiling water; this is called a
double boiler. Don’t allow the bottom
of the bowl to touch the water.
3.
Whisk the egg yolks and vinegar
together over the pot of boiling water;
make sure the bowl fits tightly. The
steam will heat up the bottom of the
bowl, cooking the eggs. Continually
whisk the egg mixture so it doesn’t
scramble.
4.
Once it nearly doubles in size and is
pale and fluffy, slowly add the yellow
part of the butter while whisking. Add
1 tablespoon of hot water to help
stabilise the sauce. Season with salt
and pepper.
5.
In a large pan, heat oil and sauté
onions for 2 minutes. Add leek and
garlic and sauté for 3 more minutes, or
until the leek starts to wilt.
6.
Add thyme and white wine. Reduce
wine until nearly all gone, season with
salt and pepper, and stir in the butter.
Set aside.
7.
Cover steak in olive oil and season
with salt and pepper.
8.
Heat up a frypan until just smoking,
add the steak and cook for 30
seconds. Turn over and cook for 30
seconds. Repeat this for 2 -3 minutes.
Remove from pan and allow to rest for
2 minutes before slicing.
9.
Preheat the oven by turning the
element selection dial to the TOAST/
COOK function and turn the timer
dial to 5 minutes.
10.
Spoon leek mixture into the vol au
vent cases, lay a few pieces of sliced
steak over, and top with a spoonful of
hollandaise.
11.
Place in the oven and turn the timer
dial to 3-4 minutes. Cook until the
hollandaise starts to gratinate. Serve
immediately.
