Steak tartare might sound like a restaurant-only indulgence, but it’s surprisingly simple to make at home—and guaranteed to impress at your next dinner party. Rich, finely diced ribeye is balanced by bright shallots, briny capers, and crisp cornichons, all brought together with silky egg yolks and a touch of Dijon. The best part? No fussy toasts—just Lay’s Classic Potato Chips for the perfect salty crunch. It’s elegant, unexpected, and ready in minutes.

Served with crispy, lacy cheese crisps, this soup is an elegant yet comforting dish, perfect for chilly days.
