Ingredients: 5 oz high-quality beef tenderloin (sushi-grade), very cold; 2 tbsp neutral oil; 2 tbsp red onion, minced fine; 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, finely chopped; ½ tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped; 1 tsp Dijon mustard; ¼ tsp sea salt; ⅛ tsp black pepper; Mitmita (homemade or store-bought): 1 dried red chile (seeds removed), 2 cloves garlic, ½ tsp salt—ground in mortar to a paste; ½ red onion, thinly sliced on mandoline; 2 tbsp red wine vinegar; 1 pinch sugar; 1 pre-made injera or flatbread; 1 tsp neutral oil (for crisping); Microgreens or cilantro sprout for garnish

A bold, North African-inspired tartare where high-quality beef is seasoned with mitmita (a fierce Ethiopian chile condiment of dried chiles, garlic, and salt), served on shattered crispy injera and topped with tart, paper-thin pickled red onion. Herbaceous and raw, with genuine house-kitchen confidence.
