Ingredients
- 300 grams beef tenderloin

- 2 tablespoons capers
- 3 small cornichons
- 2 tablespoons parsley
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 dashes Tabasco sauce
- 1 small baguette
Directions
Step 1
Place the beef tenderloin in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes to slightly firm up, making it easier to dice.
Step 2
Finely chop the shallot, capers, cornichons, and parsley and set aside.
Step 3
Remove the beef from the freezer and cut into small dice, approximately 1/4 inch cubes.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced beef with the shallot, capers, cornichons, parsley, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and egg yolk. Mix well to combine.
Step 5
Gradually add the olive oil while mixing to incorporate it thoroughly.
Step 6
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and Tabasco sauce. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Step 7
Slice the small baguette into thin slices and toast them lightly under a grill or in a toaster.
Step 8
Divide the steak tartare between two plates, forming a neat mound or using a mold for a precise shape.
Step 9
Garnish with additional capers or parsley if desired.
Step 10
Serve immediately with the toasted baguette slices on the side.
