📝 Ingredients (Serves 4):
- 🥩 4 beef steaks
- 🥄 2 tbsp cognac
- 🧂 1 tbsp mustard seeds
- ⚫ 1 tbsp cracked black pepper
- 🛢️ 1 tbsp oil
- 🧈 1 tbsp butter
- 🥛 15 cl (2/3 cup) heavy cream
- 🥄 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 🧂 Salt, to taste
📋 Directions:
- 🍶 Prepare the Steaks:
Spread the mustard seeds and black pepper evenly on a flat plate. Pour 2 tablespoons of cognac into a shallow bowl. Dip each steak first into the cognac, then press firmly into the mustard seed and pepper mixture to coat. Let rest for 10 minutes. - 🍳 Cook the Steaks:
Heat the oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the steaks for 3–4 minutes per side, depending on your preferred doneness. Remove the skillet from heat, pour over the remaining cognac, and carefully flambé. Once the flames subside, transfer the steaks to a plate, cover, and keep warm. Discard the excess cooking fat. - 🥛 Make the Sauce:
In the same skillet, bring 15 cl (2/3 cup) of cream to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it reduce for 3–4 minutes. Stir in the Dijon mustard and the remaining cream, cooking for another 30 seconds. - 🌟 Finish and Serve:
Season the steaks with a pinch of salt and pour the creamy mustard sauce around them. Serve hot with celery gratin or sautéed potatoes for a delicious, comforting meal.
