Carne Cruda

Directions

1. 1
   Toss the beef in a bowl with the arugula, parsley, oil, and lemon juice.
2. 2
   Season with salt and pepper, add more lemon juice if necessary, and serve immediately.
3. 3
   For a time, the darling of pricey restaurants: Omit the parsley.
4. 4
   Shave about 12 slices of Parmesan with a vegetable peeler.
5. 5
   Instead of dicing the beef, slice it as thinly as possible (this will be easiest if you freeze it about halfway to solid first).
6. 6
   Place the beef slices on a chilled plate and top with arugula and Parmesan.
7. 7
   Drizzle with the olive oil and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
8. 8
   Serve immediately.
