  1. Remove the sirloin from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 190 °C.
  2. Meanwhile, cut the stems off the fresh garlic.
  3. Cut the garlic bulbs open from the top so that you can just see the cloves and place them on a piece of aluminum foil. Pour 1 tablespoon of rapeseed oil into each bulb and fold the foil around it.
  4. Roast the garlic in the oven for approximately 35 minutes at 190 °C.
  5. Put the fresh garlic cloves in a mortar. Grind the garlic finely with the pestle.
  6. Add the mayonnaise, quark, miso, and salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Pat the sirloin dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the meat with some salt and rub in some rapeseed oil.
  8. Heat the grill pan over high heat and sear the meat on both sides for 3-5 minutes. Turn halfway through. Sprinkle the meat with pepper. Wrap the meat in aluminum foil and let it rest for a while.
  9. Slice the meat diagonally with a sharp knife. Place on a nice plate and spread fresh garlic aioli and Dutch Wadden shrimp over it.
  10. Garnish the Wadden Surf en turf with the finely chopped fresh garlic stems and drizzle the crispy chili oil over it. Serve with a green salad.
