- mustard - 4 tbsp. spoons.
Preparation
The suggested amount of ingredients is calculated for the preparation of 4 portions of tar-tar.
For real tar-tara, beef is not passed through the meat grinder, but is cut very finely. In the dishes with chopped meat, add chopped parsley, onions and capers. We also lay out the sauce and mustard, sprinkle with lemon juice and olive oil, salt, pepper. All components are thoroughly mixed.
The resulting mass is divided into 4 parts, we spread each portion on a separate plate, forming a sphere from the stuffing. In the center of chopped meat we make a deepening, where we put the yolk. Lemons cut into circles. Around each meat sphere we lay out 4 slices of lemon. On a circle of lemon a spoon is placed: sliced capers (you can pickled cucumbers), chopped parsley, sliced shallots and mustard.
If you find it difficult to imagine yourself absorbing meat without heat treatment, you can fry the meat cakes on a hot frying pan for literally 10 seconds on each side.
