Beef Tartare With Cured Egg Yolk

Ingredients

  • 600g beef fillet tail or beef fillet, diced into cubes about 7mm
  • 2 shallots, peeled and finely chopped
  • Half a clove of garlic, minced
  • 1 heaped tablespoon of good quality mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon of brandy
  • 1 heaped tablespoon of ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon of English mustard
  • 1 green pepper, deseeded and finely diced
  • Half a red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 1 small bunch of dill, finely chopped
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Smoked sea salt
  • 6 Cacklebean eggs
  • 50ml Worcestershire sauce
  • Sourdough bread, toasted and rubbed with a clove of raw garlic
  • 30 caper berries, stalk removed and halved (for garnish)
  • Extra virgin olive oil

For the tartare:


1

Combine all the ingredients, apart from the beef, together in a bowl. Season the mix with the smoked salt and black pepper. Once you are happy with the flavour of your mix you can add in the beef.

2

Gently fold it through before dividing it evenly between 6 plates. You can use a ring cutter to shape the meat on the plate, gently pressing it into a patty shape.

3

To cure the yolks, put them into a small bowl or container and pour over the Worcestershire sauce and a small amount of olive oil.

4

Leave them for a couple of hours, draining them just before you are ready to serve your tartare.

For the garnish:


1
Top the tartare with the caper berries and place an egg yolk in the centre of each one, being careful not to break it. Serve the tartare immediately with some toasted sourdough and some good extra virgin olive oil.
