Ingredients with Measurements:
- 1 lb Slinzega (thinly sliced beef)
- 1 head of garlic
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Special equipment needed:
- Baking sheet
- Aluminum foil
- Mortar and pestle
Step-by-step instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. Cut off the top of the garlic head to expose the cloves. Place the garlic head on a sheet of aluminum foil and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Wrap the garlic head in the foil and place it on a baking sheet. Roast the garlic in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown.
3. While the garlic is roasting, season the Slinzega with salt and pepper.
4. Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Slinzega and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through.
5. Once the garlic is roasted, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins and mash them with a mortar and pestle until they form a paste.
6. Add the garlic paste to the skillet with the Slinzega and stir to combine.
7. Serve the Slinzega with roasted garlic and olive oil hot.
