Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Beef Tenderloin
- 1 small (about 30 grams) Shallot
- 1 tablespoon Capers (low sodium, rinsed)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (low sodium)
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 10 grams Microgreens (for garnish)
Instructions
Ensure the beef tenderloin is cold for easy handling. First, trim away any fat or sinew from the beef tenderloin.
Using a sharp knife, finely dice the beef tenderloin into small cubes or mince if preferred for a finer texture.
Peel and finely dice the shallot. Rinse the low sodium capers under cold water to remove excess sodium, then chop them finely.
Rinse the fresh chives and parsley, pat dry, and finely chop them.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced beef, shallot, capers, chives, and parsley.
Add the Dijon mustard, low sodium Worcestershire sauce, and the egg yolk to the beef mixture.
Drizzle in the olive oil and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients, ensuring even distribution of flavors.
Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste, mixing again to incorporate well.
Divide the steak tartare mixture into two portions and shape each portion into a round disc on individual serving plates.
Garnish with microgreens to add fresh contrast and serve immediately to enjoy the freshness of the tartare.
