Ingredients
- 180 g Potatoes, firm (waxy), raw

- 70 g Onions, raw
- 1 g Salt
- 5 g Vegetable oil

Method
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1 cm cubes. Cut the beef into cubes of about 1.5 cm and chop the onion.
- Boil the potato cubes in water with half the salt for 3-4 minutes, drain them well and let them steam dry.
- Fry the potatoes in the oil and a third of the butter over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, turning them often, until golden and crisp. Keep them warm.
- In another pan, fry the onion in a little of the butter over medium heat for 6-8 minutes, until soft and golden. Keep it warm.
- Whip the cream until it just holds its shape and stir in the mustard, for the mustard cream.
- Heat the rest of the butter until it foams and fry the beef over high heat for 2-3 minutes, turning, until browned outside and pink inside. Season with the rest of the salt and the pepper.
- Lay the beef, potatoes and onion side by side on a warm plate, with the raw egg yolk in half its shell (use a very fresh egg) and the mustard cream beside them, and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
