Ingredients

Method

In spice grinder or mortar and pestle, pound mustard seeds, peppercorns and fennel seeds until coarsely crushed.

Place beef on waxed paper; roll in spice mixture to coat. In large heavy skillet, heat about 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil over medium-high heat until smoking; sear beef all over until spices are just browned, about 45 seconds per side. Refrigerate meat until cold. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 2-1/2 hours.

Using sharp carving knife, slice beef as thinly as possible. Divide arugula decoratively among plates. Divide beef over top. Sprinkle with capers, cheese and salt ; drizzle with remaining oil. Serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over top. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate up to 1 hour.)
