Ingredients

600g/1lb 5oz beef fillet, cut into 1cm/½in cubes
25g/1oz butter
1 onion, thinly sliced
250g/9oz button mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
400ml/14fl oz beef stock
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 heaped tbsp crème fraiche
finely chopped parsley, to serve
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Season the beef fillets with salt and pepper and set aside.

Heat the butter in a large frying pan. Add the onions and sauté for 2 minutes then add the mushrooms, cook until both are soft. Add the mustard and stir it into the vegetables, coating thoroughly. Pour over the stock and leave to simmer until the liquid has reduced by about half. Stir in the crème fraiche and set aside for a few minutes.

In another large frying pan heat the vegetable oil. When it is smoking, add the beef cubes. Stir constantly – until the meat is browned on all sides. You only want it to cook for 1 minute, at the most.

Return the onion and mushroom sauce to the heat and add the beef to the pan. Season to taste, sprinkle over the parsley and serve.
