π Place the piece of beef in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes to firm it up and make it easier to carve. π Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the onion. Chop the parsley and chives.
π Remove the beef from the freezer and, using a sharp knife, cut it into small, even cubes.
π In a bowl, combine the olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
π Stir in the diced beef, chopped onion, and chopped herbs. Gently mix to coat the meat well.
π Serve immediately. You can use a cookie cutter for a more polished finish.
π‘ Tips:
π Choose very fresh, high-quality beef, as it is best eaten raw. π For a more spicy flavor, add a pinch of Espelette pepper or a few drops of Tabasco.
π Vary the herbs according to the season: basil, tarragon, coriander, etc.
π₯‘ Storage:
π Beef tartare is best enjoyed immediately after preparation. If you have leftovers, store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container and consume them within the same day.
