Beef Carpaccio with Manchego Cheese, Black Olive Oil, Chestnuts and Mushrooms

Preparation

Cut the Spanish beef into pieces 10 cm thick, place in a vacuum pack and freeze. When frozen, slice on the electric slicer and arrange the slices over the base of a flat plate. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with grated Manchego cheese, a few thinly-sliced mushrooms and finely-grated chestnut. Make the black olive oil by drying out some pitted black olives in the oven at 180ºC / 350ºF for about 90 minutes, then blend with olive oil.

Serve with a Mediterranean wine full of aromas of herbs, spice and wood alongside ripe red berries. An excellent, surprisingly good choice would be Gran Vinya son Caules 2001 by Miguel Gelabert.
