Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • beef chopped by hand into fine cubes
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • handful of chives
  • 1 egg yolk chicken or quail
  • pinch of sea salt and black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • a few veggie crisps
  • a little olive oil

Method
 

  1. Buy the beef on the day you plan to eat it, from a butcher, and ask for a lean cut for tartare. Keep it in the fridge until everything else is ready.
  2. Chop the onion finely and slice the chives.
  3. Wash the beef and cut it into fine pieces: first thin strips, then cubes. Use a sharp knife rather than a mincer.
  4. Add a little olive oil while cutting.
  5. Season with sea salt and black pepper at the last moment, and mix in the mustard.
  6. Form the tartare on the plate, top with the egg yolk and serve with veggie crisps.

Notes

Quantities follow the ingredient box of the post; the post gives no weight for the beef, so none is stated here. Raw beef and a raw yolk: not for pregnant women, and not a dish to make with meat of unknown origin. Calories assume 150 g of beef, since the recipe box does not give a weight, plus the onion, egg yolk, mustard, a little olive oil and a few veggie crisps.
