Serve with toasted bread, crackers, or crispy fries. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for extra color and flavor.
Simply halve or quarter the ingredients. For example, use 1 egg yolk and reduce the beef and veggies proportionally for a smaller portion.
Absolutely! Try adding Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, or chopped fresh herbs like tarragon or dill for a personalized touch.
