Preparation
- 4 good size, top quality rib-eye steak.
- For the Maille Horseradish Mustard sauce, heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, the shallot, garlic and thyme until the shallot is golden brown. Stir in the wine and reduce by two-thirds. Stir in the bouillon mixture and reduce by half. Stir in the cream and heat through. Remove from the heat and remove thyme. Stir in Maille Horseradish Mustard with a wire whisk. Season, if desired, with salt and pepper. If necessary, add more mustard for an additional kick.
- For the mashed potatoes, cover potatoes in a large saucepan with water and bring to the boil over a high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 12 minutes. Drain, then mash.
- Bring milk to a boil in the same saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in potatoes, butter and, if desired, salt. Reduce heat to low and stir with wire whisk until desired consistency, adding more milk if necessary. Season as desired.
- Boil broccoli, until tender, about 4 minutes. Combine Maille olive oil, soy sauce and chopped garlic in medium bowl. Add broccoli; toss to coat. Set aside.
- Season rib eye with salt and pepper, rub in olive oil and cook in a dry pan on a high heat until it is cooked to your taste.
To serve
Serve on a plate with mashed potatoes and broccoli on the side. The Maille Horseradish Mustard can be served directly on the meat or on the side.
