Method:

Oven temperature: 200°C.
1. Cut the fillet in half lengthways, taking care not to cut right through. Open the
fillet up. Spread a layer of the cranberry sauce over the bottom half and top with
feta cheese. Close the fillet and use a piece of string to secure the meat and
keep it closed.
2. Brush liberally with olive oil and brown over a high heat in a roasting pan or
large frying pan. Once browned on all sides, remove from the heat and transfer
to a roasting tin.
3. Sprinkle with fresh thyme and garlic and rub to coat the fillet. Season with salt
and pepper and roast in a preheated oven (30 to 40 minutes for medium, or
longer if you prefer it well done).
4. Remove the fillet from the oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes, while you
make the sauce.
5. Sauce Heat the roasting tin on the stove. Add the butter and stir to melt, then
add the stock, red wine and cranberry sauce. Simmer for about five minutes until
slightly thickened.
6. Remove the string from the fillet and slice into 1cm-thick slices. Serve
immediately with the vegetable dishes and the sauce on the side.
