To note: if you can't find this ingredient at the supermarket because of the mustard shortage, skip this step. Instead, you can add minced shallot to the preparation.

Cooking

1- Melt the butter in a pan over high heat.

2- When the butter foams, add the meat and brown it on both sides.

3- Sprinkle with mustard seeds and mix. Heating the mustard seeds in a pan over high heat for a few minutes will roast them to release their aroma.

Did you know that?

For this recipe, I used black mustard seeds from the Brassica nigra variety. There are actually several varieties of plants in the Brassicaceae family that yield mustard seeds. The color of the seeds varies from white to black to light yellow to brown.

Even in times of Shortage of Dijon mustard in supermarkets, it is possible to find black mustard seeds in Asian stores and grocery stores.

This ingredient is notably used in Indian cuisine to enhance the flavor of curries. Simply fry them in hot oil or Ghee to pop them and release their flavor.
