How to Make Beef Fillet Crostini Asian Style

  1. **Marinate the Beef:** In a bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients. Add the beef fillet and marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  2. **Prepare the Crostini:** Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, minced herbs, salt, and pepper. Brush baguette slices with the herby oil and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  3. **Sear the Beef:** Remove beef from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Roll in sesame seeds, pressing gently to adhere. Heat olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat until smoking (about 7 minutes). Sear beef for 2-3 minutes per side, then remove from pan and let rest for 5-7 minutes before slicing thinly.
  4. **Make the Sauce:** In a saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients (except sesame seeds and sprouts). Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer until sauce has thickened and reduced by half (about 10-15 minutes). Stir in sesame seeds.
  5. **Assemble the Crostini:** Toss beef slices with the sauce. Top each crostini with a slice of beef and garnish with bean sprouts.
  6. **Serve Immediately:** Enjoy your delicious Beef Fillet Crostini!
