Instructions:

Wash and cut the pear and boil it in the wine with a pinch of sugar until soft.

After the wine has evaporated, crush the pear cubes and leave to cool, then mix with the Roquefort.

Rinse the beef tenderloin and pat dry. Make an incision in the middle and put the Roquefort pear mixture inside. Close the cut with a slice of ham and fix it with a toothpick so that nothing can escape.

Bring a pan to temperature, add oil and sear the fillet of beef vigorously on all sides. Deglaze with cognac, turn briefly and wrap tightly in aluminum foil.

Place in the oven at 140 degrees for 10 minutes, then let rest for another 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, reduce the temperature, dab the oil from the pan and melt the butter in it.

Sauté the finely diced shallot and let it become translucent. Briefly sweat the parsley and thyme, add the beef stock and simmer down to half the liquid. Strain the sauce and add to the pan again. Thicken with butter or cornstarch.

Season to taste with salt and pepper if necessary. Finally, fold in the cream.

Arrange the combination of sauce and fillet of beef stuffed with Roquefort on a plate and enjoy.
