I love steak and we do eat fillet of beef quite often, as I mentioned in previous posts we live in Geneva near the French border. There is a store over there where I can pick up this cut of meat very cheap, so I am really lucky. I usually make it plain or with a sauce on the side, having a good cut of meat means you don’t have to do much to it. I found this marinade for steak on the recipezaar site, you would normally do this for tougher cuts of meat to tenderise, but I thought I would try this anyway. Wow it was delicious, the flavour that came from the meat from sitting in the marinade over night was outstanding. I can see how this would be great for cheaper cuts of beef, the flavour is awesome and it would tenderise meat from all the marinating time, meaning you can enjoy a great steak for a reasonable price.
