Red Berry and Mustard Sauce: Sautee the Shallots without colouring and add the Mustard. Add the Red Wine and reduce by half. Add the Berries and the Jus and simmer over moderate heat until a syrupy consistency is achieved. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Thar Steaks: Season the Meat and sear in a very hot pan or grill on each side until you have a good caramélisation. Put aside in a warm place or cover with tin foil to rest so the meat can relax for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Dressing: Combine all ingredients with a whisk. Season to taste.
To serve: Cut the Thar into thin slices and arrange with all other items nicely on a plate. Drizzle the Sauce around the Plate and garnish.
