Beef tartare and potted beef with dripping

This stunning beef rump starter uses this beautiful cut for two different preparations – a classic beef tartare and delicious potted beef recipe. Paul serves the dish with his spin on gentleman’s relish – to save time you can use a good-quality brown sauce instead if preferred. The relish makes more than is needed for this recipe, but it can be stored in sterilised jars and kept for a host of other dishes.

Braised Whole Beef Shin with Gremolata

This braised whole beef shin recipe from Pascal Aussignac is a warming delight. This cut is normally served with very heavy, rich flavours, but this recipe is a fresher take, with the beef braised in orange and red wine and served with a gremolata, giving the slow-cooked beef a wonderfully aromatic flavour.

Chateaubriand with Béarnaise Sauce

This chateaubriand recipe is perfect for special occasions. Order the thick end of the fillet from your butcher for this dish, and ask for the beef to be as well hung as possible: from 14 to 21 days is perfect. Serve up with a big bowl of chips or chunky potato wedges.
