Bitoks Of Beef Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Place the beef on a baking sheet and pat the outside dry with a paper towel. Spread the butter on with your hands. Sprinkle evenly with the salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for exactly 22 minutes for rare and 25 minutes for medium-rare.
• Remove the beef from the oven, cover it tightly with aluminum foil, and allow it to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. Remove the strings and slice the filet thickly.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine cream cheese and horseradish. Spread over bread slices. Top each with beef, sour cream, a tomato half and a parsley sprig. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Put the beef in a mixing bowl.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small saucepan and add 3/4 cup of the onions. Cook, stirring often, about 3 minutes without browning. Let cool.
• Combine the cooked onions, 1 cup of the bread crumbs, egg and milk and add to the beef. Add salt and pepper and blend well with the hands.
• Divide the mixture into 8 portions of more or less equal weight. Shape each portion into a ball. Flatten each ball into a patty and coat each with remaining bread crumbs.
• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold all the rounds in one layer. Cook until well browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook about 3 minutes on the second side. Transfer bitoks to a warm platter.
• Heat a smaller skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.
• Add the remaining 1/4 cup chopped onions and cook until wilted. Add the paprika and stir. Add the vinegar and beef broth. Bring to a boil. Add the heavy cream and sour cream, stirring. Cook about 1 minute or less. There should be about 3/4 cup of sauce. Pour over the bitoks and dot the center of each with 1/2 teaspoon parsley. Serve immediately.
