Instructions

Prep all ingredients: chop mushrooms, leeks, carrots and measure out the dijon mustard.

Season the beef cheeks with salt and pepper, then roast over medium-high heat until well browned, about 10 minutes.

Add mushrooms, leeks, carrots to the pan and cook until softened, 7 minutes.

Stir in dijon mustard, butter and cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

Meanwhile, prepare the brioche according to package instructions and set aside.

Combine everything in the pan, reduce heat, and let simmer for 8 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt, pepper, or a squeeze of citrus if needed.

Serve hot, over brioche, garnished with fresh herbs.
