GET GOING
Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock & herb mix with 480ml of boiling water and set aside. Place the carrot pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to the boil and cook until soft, 25-30 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk. Mash with a fork, season, and cover.
FRY UP
Pat the beef strips dry with paper towel. Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sear the strips until browned but not cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Season and set aside in a bowl.
SMOKY NOTES
Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the sliced onion until soft, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the smoked paprika and sauté until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Gradually mix in the diluted stock mix, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 3-4 minutes (stirring occasionally).
SO CRÈME-Y!
When the sauce has thickened, add the beef and simmer until cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Stir in the crème fraîche until combined, 1-2 minutes. Season.
FOR THE FRESHNESS
In a salad bowl, combine the vinegar, 5ml of olive oil, seasoning, the rinsed green leaves, the sliced artichokes, the radish rounds, and ½ the chopped almonds.
YUM!
Plate up the carrot mash alongside the creamy beef. Serve with the fresh salad and garnish with the remaining almonds. Go ahead, Chef!
