Chill. Wrap beef tenderloin in cling film, and chill in freezer for 1 hour. Cut beef across the grain into 3 mm-thick slices using a very sharp knife. Put slices between sheets of cling film or greaseproof paper and lightly pound using the flat end of a meat pounder, or roll using a heavy rolling pin till paper-thin. Set out slices on 6 individual chilled plates. Tip in arugula to a bowl and toss with of olive oil and (4 tablespoons) add salt and pepper till it tastes right. Arrange arugula in a pile in the middle of each plate. Put leftover oil (4 tablespoons), lemon juice, mustard, egg yolk, salt plus pepper in a 2-cup measure. Use an stick blender to mix till thick. Drizzle mustard sauce round every plate avoiding arugula. Garnish plates using tomato quarters plus eat at once.
