method
- Begin by seasoning the beef with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large fry pan over medium high heat and add in 2 tbsp of the olive oil into the pan. Sear the beef until browned on all sides (3-4 minutes per side). Transfer to a carving board, cover loosely with aluminium foil and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard and chopped eshallots. Slowly whisk in the remaining 6 tbsp of olive oil. Season the vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, watercress and tomatoes. Add the vinaigrette and toss gently then arrange on a serving plate and top with avocado. Slice the beef across the grain and arrange on the salad. Season with more salt and pepper and serve immediately.
