Preparation:
  1. Prepare all the ingredients as described above.

  2. Remove excess fat from steak. Finely chop the fillets into 5 mm pieces. Do this by cutting the steaks into thin strips. Cut the strips into halves or thirds. Then cut the steak strips crosswise.

  3. Finely chop the onion and capers. Grate the lemon peel and squeeze the juice. Add egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and spicy mustard to the mixing bowl. Stir to combine well.

  4. Add chopped steak, minced shallot, capers, egg yolk mixture, parsley, olive oil, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper to the mixing bowl. Mix everything well.

  5. Taste, then add seasoning or lemon juice to taste.

  6. Press the steak tartare into ramekins, then turn out onto small disc-shaped serving plates.

  7. Garnish with parsley and/or capers. You can put extra egg yolk on top of the tartar, but you have to know that it will change the texture of the tartar.
