MAKE THE MASH
Place the Potato pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, season, and cover.
STOCK & SALAD
Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock with 80ml of boiling water. Set aside. In a salad bowl, combine the shredded salad leaves, the drained peppers, the Cucumber half-moons, the vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside.
SEAR THE SCHNITZEL
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the schnitzel dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the schnitzel until browned, 20-30 seconds per side. In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan and season.
FRY
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil & a knob of butter. When hot, fry the diced Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms until golden, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally).
SAUCE
Once the mushrooms are cooked, add a knob of butter and the flour. Cook the flour out for 2-3 minutes (stirring continuously). Pour in the diluted stock and the picked thyme. Simmer until starting to thicken, 5-8 minutes. If the sauce is too thick for your liking, add a splash of water. Remove from the heat, add a sweetener (to taste), and season.
