-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound piece beef tenderloin -- (center-cut)
3 tablespoons coarse cracked black pepper
Kosher salt
Olive oil for searing
20 spears of asparagus, -- blanched until tender
Horseradish mayonnaise:
1 tablespoon prepared grated horseradish
1/2 cup mayonnaise, -- slightly thin
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Salt and pepper


Heat the oil in a large saute pan. Season the entire beef tender with
kosher salt and pepper. Sear the beef on all sides until very brown.
Meanwhile, make the mayonnaise. In a small bowl combine the horseradish,
mayonnaise, and chives. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Remove
the meat from the pan and allow to cool completely. Using a very sharp
knife, slice the beef into 10 thin slices. Season with salt and pepper.
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of the beef and lay 2 spears
of asparagus in the center of each piece of beef. Roll the beef up over the
asparagus. Arrange on a plate and drizzle with additional mayonnaise.
