Cut the fillet into 4 medallions, border it with bacon and tie it with kitchen string, cook it at 54° to the core.
For the crumble:
Slice the homemade bread, remove the crusts and coarsely chop it, remove the seeds from the chilli and chop it together with the albumen and paprika.
Add all ingredients in a bowl and knead lightly, keeping the mixture in irregular pieces. Adjust with salt.
Sprinkle on a sheet of baking paper and bake at 150° until crispy.
Peel the asparagus from the leathery parts and wash it well in running water, then in salted and cooled water.
Brown the fillets on all sides in a frying pan with butter for a few moments. Untie it.
For the asparagine:

Place a medallion on top of the asparagus, sprinkle generously with crumble and serve immediately.
