Pre-heat oven to 250C. Place a heavy oven tray in the oven to heat. Tie the beef fillet at intervals with string. Rub with olive oil and sea salt and freshly cracked pepper. Place the beef on the tray in the oven and cook for 20-35 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover with foil. Allow to rest for 45 minutes at room temperature.
