Beef with Mushrooms and Celery Root
  • Prep time:
    20 Minutes
  • Serves:
    2 to 4
  • Cook time:
    20 Minutes

Ingredients

7 Cup peeled, cubed celery root
1/2 Cup milk
3 Tablespoon unsalted butter
2 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
2 Tablespoon green peppercorns
2 lb top sirloin, 1 inch thick
2 Tablespoon olive oil
1 Pound small button mushrooms,
1 Cup beef stock
1/2 Cup red wine

Preparation

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add celery root, cover and cook until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain, add milk and 2 tablespoons butter, and mash. Season with salt and pepper, stir in parsley, and cover to keep warm.
  2. Heat skillet over medium-high. Coat beef with 1 tablespoon oil, season with salt and pepper, and press with green peppercorns. Sear on both sides until browned, about 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board, tent with foil and let rest.
  3. Return skillet to heat, add remaining oil and mushrooms, and sauté 3 minutes. Add wine and stock, scraping up any caramelized bits and bring to a boil. Cook until mushrooms become tender and sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and swirl in remaining butter.
  4. To serve, divide celery root mash among plates and cover with thinly sliced beef and mushroom sauce.

WHY WORRY ABOUT A WINE PAIRING. MY RULE IS TO USE THE WINE THAT TASTES BEST TO YOU AND FORGET THE OTHER SILLY RULES FOLKS HAVE COOKED UP IN AN EFFORT TO PROMOTE A PRODUCT.
