STEAK TARTARE
Bring the bistro home with this classic recipe for steak tartare. The key to serving a restaurant-quality appetizer at your kitchen table is two-fold: First, buy the best quality beef tenderloin you can find-there's a time and place for economy cuts but this isn't one of them! Then, freezing the meat for about 20 minutes firms it up just enough so that it makes quick and easy work out of cutting it into small, even pieces.

STEAK TARTARE (THANKS TO FREDY)
Tartare is a word that the French give to something with (mostly) raw ingredients that are minced and/or chopped. This is a world-famous, award-winning recipe given to my father by the barman at a deluxe hotel, who would knock this up on demand in record time. And boy, was it in demand! Chop the beef by hand, as machines tend to crush the meat and you end up with a soggy mess. My father's award-winning barman friend (sadly, now no longer with us) actually used 2 knives simultaneously in each hand to do this. He prepared the whole thing, including chopping the meat, in 15 minutes. If he knew he was going to be busy, then he pre-cut and sliced and diced everything beforehand, in which case he served it in less than 5 minutes. Serve with thin, buttered toast.

SWEDISH STEAK TARTARE (RABIFF)
This is steak tartare as we use to make it in Sweden. It is mixed at the table by the guests themselves. It is best served with ice-cold vodka or Champagne (but then cut down on the accessories). The quality of the meat cannot be compromised upon. Use only fresh fillet. One popular variety is to let the guests mix their steaks and then broil them on very high heat over a charcoal fire for only a few seconds, so that they remain raw inside. In that case it may be served with french fries and butter Maitre d'Hotel (i.e. butter mixed with finely chopped parsley and a little lemon).

ORIGINAL STEAK TARTARE
The legend goes that Tartare tribes when fighting in the past didn't even have time to stop and cook their food. They are said to have kept the meat underneath their saddles and mince it in this way. Today this dish is a gourmet classic. This dish is eaten like a pate, spread on a piece of warm toast with fresh tomato and onion rings on top. It is very important though to make sure that both the meat and the egg are very fresh because they are eaten raw.
