What is Gordon Ramsay Steak Tartar Recipe?

Gordon Ramsay’s Steak Tartar Recipe consists of raw ground steak (and sometimes horse meat). For added flavor, the steak is mixed with capers, Worcestershire sauce, herbs, pickled vegetables, and more. In the end, the ground steak mixture is shaped into rounds with round cookie cutters and topped with a raw egg yolk.

Is Steak Tartar safe to eat?

When prepared properly and handled safely, steak tartare is safe to eat. There is always a risk of foodborne illness when eating raw meat (or any food, really). But you can do your best to avoid them with these practices:

  • When making Steak Tartare, always use high-quality beef.
  • Let your butcher know you will be eating the steak raw, and he will make sure it is lean and fresh.
  • Keep the meat refrigerated at all times (except when assembling and serving).
  • Use gloves when handling the raw steak.

Ingredients That You’ll Need:

  • Lean steak – You should start with a very lean steak, like sirloin, beef tenderloin, or top round. Ask your butcher for a fresh steak and tell him you’ll be eating it raw.
  • Capers – They add a nice acidity to balance out the flavors.
  • Cornichons – Don’t use sweet pickles. You can use small dill pickles instead.
  • Shallots – Adding a hint of savory flavor to each bite.
  • Worcestershire sauce – A classic choice in beef tartare recipes, its umami flavor plays well with the acidity.
  • Parsley – Fresh is best!
  • Egg yolks – Make sure you use fresh eggs and keep them refrigerated until ready to serve. You can serve them on top of the beef tartare or mix them in with the meat.

@Omo Adekola, Steak Tartare is a classic dish that is traditionally served raw. The beef and egg yolk remain uncooked, so it’s essential to use very fresh, high-quality beef and eggs from a trusted source. This dish should be consumed immediately after preparation.
