Beef in Creamy Dijon Sauce
with skinny fries and tomato salad
In this updated version of meat and three veg, the creamy Dijon sauce livens up tender beef strips, while carrot lends a slight sweetness to the mash. Serve with a simple salad for some crunch and just a touch of acidity to balance out the richness of the dish.

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 0.5cm chips (peeling optional).
Pop the chips onto a large (lined) baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season well with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
- Chop the tomatoes into wedges.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- To make your dressing, mix the balsamic vinegar with 1 tbsp oil (double for 4p).
- Just before serving toss the salad leaves and tomato through the dressing and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once the pan is very hot, sear the beef strips until cooked through, shifting as they colour, 2-3 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat and its packaging. Meat is safe to eat when the outside is browned.
- Remove the beef strips from the pan and cover to keep warm.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Fry the garlic for 1 min then add the creme fraiche, half the mustard (double for 4p) and stock.
- Cook, stirring until slightly thickened for 2-3 mins.
- Once the sauce has thickened slightly, return the beef strips to the pan.
- Toss to coat the beef strips well in the sauce.
- Divide the chips between plates.
- Top with the creamy Dijon beef.
- Serve the tomato salad alongside.
