Preparation
Cranberry Jelly
- To make the jelly, soak gelatin sheets for about 3 minutes in a bowl filled with cold water.
- Heat the cranberry juice in a sauce pan on the stove and add the gelatin sheets previously wrung out with your hands.
- Stir and pour into a flat container whose bottom has been covered with plastic wrap to facilitate jelly demolding.
- Set aside and chill.
Tartare
- Prepare the meat by cutting into cubes about 0.5 cm thick and set aside in a large bowl.
- Add all other ingredients, except cranberries, and mix well.
- Add the cranberries, adjust the seasoning and chill the mixture.
- When the jelly is well-set, gently unmold and cut into small cubes about 1 cm.
- Divide the meat mixture into 4 portions and using a cookie cutter, place a quarter of the tartar at the bottom of each plate and place a few cubes of gelatin on top of the tartare or all around the meat.
- Garnish with a few leaves of arugula and chives.
- Serve with bread croutons.
