  • 2 tablespoon Parsley finely chopped
  • 1 ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard

Method
 

Sunchoke Chips
  1. Heat avocado oil in a pan to 375°F.
  2. Fry thinly sliced sunchokes in batches until golden brown and crisp.
  3. Transfer to a paper towel–lined sheet and season immediately with salt.
Beef Tartare
  1. Place beef filet in the freezer for 30 minutes (this makes it easier to dice cleanly).
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks, parsley, shallots, Worcestershire, sherry vinegar, Dijon, chopped cornichons, and capers until emulsified.
  3. Remove filet from freezer. Slice against the grain into ¼" slices, then into strips, then dice into small cubes.
  4. Add diced beef to the bowl with the dressing and gently mix until fully incorporated. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
To Serve
  1. Use a plating ring to shape tartare on a chilled plate.
  2. Top with pickled mustard seeds and/or grated cured egg yolk if desired.
  3. Serve immediately with sunchoke chips on the side.

Notes

Storage: Serve immediately, raw beef tartare doesn't hold well once dressed. The sunchoke chips can be fried a few hours ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature to stay crisp.
