Make the anchovy-garlic aioli: in a bowl whisk the garlic paste, anchovies, egg yolk and Dijon. Slowly drizzle the oil while whisking vigorously until emulsified and thick. Finish with lemon juice, season to taste. Refrigerate.
Using a sharp chef’s knife, finely dice the beef into small, even cubes (about 3–4 mm). Do not use a food processor — texture is everything.
In a chilled bowl combine the minced shallot, chopped capers, cornichons, parsley, chives and minced anchovies (if using). Add Dijon, Worcestershire and olive oil. Stir to combine.
Add the diced beef to the seasoning mix. Fold in the egg yolk (or mayonnaise) — this binds and gives silkiness. Season aggressively with sea salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Taste — you want a bright, balanced flavour: acid from lemon or capers, salt from capers/anchovy, heat from pepper.
Plate with intent: use a ring mold or shape by hand into a neat mound in the centre of chilled plates. Spoon a little anchovy-garlic aioli alongside or on top. Garnish with extra chives and microgreens. Finish with a quick squeeze of lemon and a crack of black pepper.
Serve immediately with toasted bread — crisp vehicle, no sog. Leftovers? Don’t. Eat fresh within 30 minutes of assembly for best texture and safety.
