When it comes to a great steak, it’s all about the perfect seasoning. For the last couple of months every time I’ve made pork steaks, I used dijon mustard combined with other seasonings as a basis for a spicy marinade. Turns out it’s an amazing idea, everyone loved it so far as it brings out the flavour to a new level and I’m giving it a big recommendation! π
There’s this tasty side dish my mum always used to make every time we had some leftover mashed potatoes and pasta. She would combine the two, mix in some fresh herbs and spices and that’s it. Here is my upgraded version I used as a side dish next to my dijon mustard marinated steaks and it worked out awesome. Use your leftovers and have fun in the kitchen!

Love adding dijon to marinades! It gives it so much flavor, but I’ve never added it to meat – always fish and chicken. Thanks for sharing! I’m intrigued with the combo of paprika and dijon together!
