Experimenting on a sunday morning...
Disclaimer: the following dish might not be for everyone, so read at your own risk.

I bought a nice piece of beef filet for sunday dinner (Steaks with shallot confit and potato dumplings) which would have been too much for the dinner alone. As I hadn't had tartare in a while, I wanted to try to make it from scratch. Ingredients were simple as ever, namely:

-around 150 grams of beef filet,
-yolk of one small egg,
-one shallot or small onion,
-salt, pepper, lemon juice or vinegar, neutral oil after taste.

pare the meat, cut it in blender-sized chunks:



Grind or blend it to a finer than ground beef level:



cube the shallots, season the meat with salt, pepper, shallots and vinegar:


add yolk and oil:


serve on buttered fresh toast or a bread roll:



Aaand the dinner, Steaks with Shallot confit, broccoli and potato dumplings:






Enjoy!
