👨‍🍳 Instruktioner

1
Prepare the springbok fillet for slicing. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, ensuring it's a compact, uniform shape. This helps in achieving even, thin slices. Place the wrapped fillet in the freezer for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours, until it is firm but not frozen solid. It should be firm enough to slice cleanly.
⏱️ 1-2 hours (freezing)
2
Prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice. Season lightly with a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
⏱️ 5 minutes
3
Slice the springbok. Unwrap the partially frozen fillet. Using a very sharp knife (a mandoline slicer is ideal if you have one and are comfortable using it), slice the springbok as thinly as possible – aim for almost translucent slices. Work quickly to prevent the meat from warming up too much.
⏱️ 15 minutes
4
Assemble the carpaccio. Arrange the thin slices of springbok in a single layer on chilled serving plates, slightly overlapping them. You can create a circular pattern or a more rustic arrangement.
⏱️ 10 minutes
5
Dress and garnish. Drizzle the prepared olive oil and lemon juice mixture evenly over the springbok slices. Using a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife, shave generous pieces of Parmesan cheese directly over the carpaccio. Scatter the drained capers and fresh rocket leaves over the top. Finish with a final sprinkle of flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
⏱️ 5 minutes

💡 Proffstips

✓The key to perfect carpaccio is slicing the meat extremely thin. Partially freezing the meat is crucial for achieving this.
✓Use only the freshest, highest-quality game meat available. If springbok is unavailable, consider other lean game meats like venison.
✓For an authentic South African touch, consider adding a sprinkle of finely crushed biltong (dried, cured meat) for an extra layer of savory flavor.
✓Ensure your serving plates are chilled before plating to help keep the carpaccio cool.
