About this recipe

This dish reminds me of my childhood Sunday dinners, but in a slightly refined version. Back then, there were often roulades with dumplings and a hearty sauce. The fillet medallions are a more elegant alternative, but convey the same comforting taste. The beef fillet is of course the star of the dish. It should be of good quality, because that makes a big difference in taste and tenderness. The South Tyrolean bacon not only envelops the fillet, but also gives it a spicy, slightly smoky note that harmonizes perfectly with the tender meat. The parsley in the dumplings provides a fresh, green note and a hint of herbal aroma. The red onions in the sauce bring a pleasant sweetness and depth to the flavor. The beef stock forms the basis for a strong sauce that holds the dish together. And the green beans contribute a crunchy texture and a slight bitterness, which provides a nice contrast to the other components. When preparing with the Thermomix®, it is important not to chop the onions too finely, as they can burn during sautéing. Level 5 is ideal here. Be sure to add the roasting juices from the pan to the mixing bowl, as it contains many roasted aromas that make the sauce particularly tasty. When reducing the sauce without a measuring cup, the liquid evaporates faster, giving the sauce a thicker consistency. For a vegetarian version, you could replace the fillet medallions with thick slices of halloumi, which you also wrap in bacon (or with smoked tofu for a vegan version). Instead of beef stock, you can use vegetable broth. The sauce can also be refined with a splash of red wine. If you like it a little spicier, you can add a pinch of chili flakes. Serve the fillet medallions with herb dumplings and onion sauce on preheated plates. A dry red wine, such as a Pinot Noir or a Chianti, goes well with it. Cranberries or a fresh salad are also suitable as a side dish. The fillet medallions taste best freshly prepared. However, the sauce can be prepared well in advance and stored in the refrigerator. The dumplings can also be precooked and briefly tossed in butter before serving. The green beans should only be cooked shortly before serving so that they retain their crunchy texture.
