Ingredients
900 g fillet of beef
15 ml corn oil
150 ml beef stock
45 ml port
10 ml cornflour
213 g blackberries
1 ground black pepper
Directions
Often the combination of fruit with meat does not raise an eyebrow;
think, for instance, of roast pork and apple sauce, duck with orange,
or turkey with cranberries. When more unusual combinations are made,
however, they are often tried with some trepidation. This dish has
nevertheless proved a favourite, and although best made with fresh
blackberries, can also be made with frozen ones, or those canned in
natural juice. Serve with a green vegetable, such as french beans or
mangetout peas.
One serving has 300 calories and 11g fat. Preparation time 15 minutes
+ 30-45 minutes baking. Oven temperature Gas Mark 8/450F/230C Preheat
the oven, trim the fat and silvery skin from the beef. Brush with the
oil, season with pepper and roast in the oven for 30-45 minutes (rare
to medium rare). Remove the meat, wrap in foil and keep it warm.
Drain any fat from the roasting tin and add the beef stock. Stir
well, scraping all the meaty pieces from the base of the pan. Blend
the port with the cornflour, add this to the pan and stir until
thickened. Stir in the blackberries. Season to taste. Cut the meat
into thick slices and arrange it on a plate. Pour the sauce over it.

Diet Beef With Blackberries Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Diet informationThe Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet is still widely used today. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many of the foods you love, for example bacon and hard cheeses. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a low carb/high protein, diet. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a weight loss system invented by Cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that one should eat "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston developed his weight loss system for people who have cardiac problems, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific data completed on other dietary studies. Approved foods include, canadian bacon, turkey bacon, fish and shellfish, parmesan cheese, pistachios, nonfat milk and certain vegetables, such as asparagus, broccoli and mushrooms. The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index nutrition and weightloss system is reliant on the gi index, a chart showing foods and an indicator of the rapidity that the carbs in the food gets transformed to sugar in the dieters body. The theory is that slow release types of food (ie those with a low Gi score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help to eat less food without feeling you are always hungry. It is also very useful for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in managing rises in blood sugar secretion. |
