Beef Tartare

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    Finely chop the beef tenderloin into small cubes using a sharp knife. Make sure the beef is very fresh for safety and flavor.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped beef, Dijon mustard, finely chopped cornichons, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.

  3. 3

    Add Egg Yolk

    Create a small well in the center of the beef mixture and place the egg yolk into the well. Carefully fold the yolk into the mixture until it is evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    Plating

    Using a ring mold, pack the beef tartare mixture into the mold on a chilled plate. Gently lift the mold to reveal the tartare.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Top the beef tartare with the pickled onions, truffle chips, and a dollop of caviar. Serve immediately.
