Instructions
1. Clean the fillet of any residual fat, and wrap it tightly in foil, forming a cylinder.
2. Let it rest in the freezer for about 30 min to ensure that the meat hardens slightly to make cutting easier. After this, slice thinly (about 1 mm) and place the slices on a serving platter.
3. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper.
4. Clean and wash all the vegetables and cut into matchsticks. Put them in a bowl with cold water to make them more crispy and leave them like that for about 30 min.

6. Grate the salted ricotta cheese over the plate with a special grater or by using a vegetable peeler.
