  1. Preheat oven to 185°C. Slice the onions into thick rings and lay on your roasting tray and set aside.
  2. Trim the fat and sinew from the scotch fillet. Place the butter, horseradish, peppercorns and Simon Gault Home Cuisine Italian seasoning in to a food processor and mix until smooth. Mix through the flour and bread crumbs. Lay the scotch fillet on the onions then spread over the crust with a pallete knife or clean hand.
  3. Roast in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until an internal temperature of 53-55°C for medium rare. Remove from the oven and rest for 15 minutes.
  4. While the beef is cooking combine the crème ingredients together in a bowl then transfer to a suitable dish for serving at the table. After the meat has rested, slice and transfer to a serving platter with the onions on the side and sprinkle with some flake salt.

Celebrate any occasion with good family and friends, memories and a glass of Selaks Reserve Merlot Cabernet.
