Ingredients

• 200 grams lean beef tenderloin
• 1 medium shallot, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon capers, drained and chopped
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons low-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped
• 50 grams mixed salad greens
• 2 slices whole grain bread, sliced and toasted

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the beef tenderloin. Ensure it is extremely fresh and of high quality. Using a sharp knife, finely dice the beef into small, uniform pieces. Aim for a tartare mix that is as fine as possible while maintaining some texture.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the chopped beef with the finely chopped shallot and capers.

Step 3

Add the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and low-fat Greek yogurt to the beef and shallot mixture. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are coated.

Step 4

Stir in the fresh parsley, lemon juice, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Blend all ingredients until they are well incorporated.

Step 5

Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the mixture and gently fold it in to add a touch of richness.

Step 6

Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as preferred.

Step 7

Chill the tartare mixture in the fridge for about 10 minutes before serving to allow all the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

To serve, arrange the mixed salad greens on individual plates as a bed for the tartare.

Step 9

Using a ring mold, form the beef tartare mixture into neat patties on top of the salad greens.

Step 10

Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of finely chopped chives.

Step 11

Serve immediately alongside toasted whole grain bread for added texture and enjoyment.
