Instructions

1 Cut the tenderloin into thin planks. Mince it as finely as possible and place in
a medium-sized mixing bowl. Reserve.
2 Add half of the scallions (reserve the other half for garnish), jalapeño, and
cilantro.
3 Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and salt, and gently fold with a
large spoon to mix evenly.
4 Individually plate the mixture into a circular mound and make a small indent on
the top of the rise for the egg yolk to sit.
5 Carefully place the egg yolk on top of the mound and sprinkle with the remaining
scallions and chili oil.
6 Serve with your favorite toast, cracker, or chip.
