Beef Dips MY Stylie

Kay so Shelby and I did try the ULTIMATE beef dip. Picture it.

Slice an onion thin and carmelize in a pan. Season lightly. Set aside.

Season and sear/roast 2 beef tenderloin steaks. Let rest while you prepare everything else.

Make an aioli or VERY generously add grated or bottled horseradish to some prepared light mayo. Add a bit of lemon juice, season it, and set aside.

Fly to Edmonton and go to the Italian Centre and buy a couple of their SUPERB baguettes.

Slice open the baguettes, and very lightly spread with some garlic/herb butter. (oh, i know). Broil until browned.

Slice the beef quite thin, bistro style. Smear some horseradish aioli on the baguette, add the beef, top with carmelized onions, add some watercress, and press down with the other side of baguette.

Slice in half and dip in au jus. (I actually used store bought and other than it containing 4 days worth of sodium per serving - it's actually REALLY good).

This may have been my favorite sarny I've ever had. It was spectacular spectacular. Shelby could NOT STOP raving about it. I earned some serious points with this dinner.

11/10 simply because of the extra points earned. These were AMAZING.
