Cooking Steps
• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Peel potato and cut into bite-sized chunks. • Finely chop garlic. Trim green beans. Thinly slice carrot into sticks.
Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help peel the potatoes!
• Cook potato in the boiling water until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. • In last 8 minutes of cook time, place a colander or steamer basket on top and add green beans and carrot. • Cover and steam until carrot is tender, and potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork, 7-8 minutes. Transfer veggies to a bowl. Season. Cover to keep warm.
• Drain potato and return to the saucepan. Add the butter, milk and the salt, then mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!
• While the veggies are cooking, heat a large frying pan over a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, cook beef strips, in batches, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
TIP: Cooking the beef in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add Dijon mustard and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add light cooking cream, Nan's special seasoning (see ingredients) and the water, stirring to combine. • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes. • Return beef strips (plus any resting juices) to the pan and stir through until heated. Season to taste.
• Divide the mash between plates and top with the creamy mustard beef. • Serve with the steamed veggies. Enjoy!
Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The creamy Dijon mustard sauce is a clear highlight, with many customers describing it as rich, delicious, and full of flavour. Some found the mustard flavour overpowering or salty, so adjusting the amount to taste is worth considering.
- Ease of prep: Most customers found this a quick and straightforward meal to pull together on a weeknight.
- Suggestions: Several customers recommended reducing the mustard slightly, adding Worcestershire sauce for extra depth, or using more of Nan's special seasoning than instructed to boost flavour. One customer suggested trying seeded mustard as an alternative, and another found skipping the water produced a thicker, less watery sauce.
- Leftovers: A number of customers felt the portions of beef, potato, and vegetables were on the smaller side, with several adding extra potatoes or cream to make the meal more filling.
- Portions: Multiple customers noted there was not quite enough cream for the sauce, and recommend having a little extra on hand to reach the right consistency.
