    Sensory Checks

    Check

    Steak should have a nice sear on the outside and be cooked to your preferred doneness.

    Texture

    Vegetables should be tender-crisp and vibrant in color.

    Check

    Sauce should be creamy and well-emulsified, with a balanced mustard flavor.

    Common Errors

    • ⚠ Overcooking the steak: Use a meat thermometer or the touch test to ensure desired doneness.
    • ⚠ Mushy vegetables: Do not overcook the vegetables; they should retain a slight bite.
    • ⚠ Sauce breaking: Ensure the heat is not too high when making the sauce, and whisk continuously.

    Notes

    • This recipe is for a single serving but can be easily scaled up.
    • Other vegetables like asparagus or green beans can be substituted for broccoli and cauliflower.
    • For a richer sauce, a splash of white wine can be added before the cream.
