2. In a pan, fry the steak in the butter and olive oil. Cover the pan and fry over high heat for 5 minutes per side.

3. Turn off the heat and then sprinkle salt over the steak. It's important not to salt before cooking as it can delay the meat's doneness.
4. Prepare the sauce in the same pan used to fry the meat: add 2 tbsp butter and the finely chopped onion and sauté until softened.
5. Add 1 tbsp flour and stir until the flour takes on color, then add the water while stirring continuously.
6. When the flour dissolves, add the cooking cream, soy sauce, mustard, nutmeg, salt and the fresh mushrooms, and stir.
7. Let the sauce simmer until it thickens slightly.
8. Serve the steak with the sauce and the prepared vegetables.
9. Parboil hard vegetables until half-cooked, then sauté all the vegetables over medium heat in a little butter with a pinch of salt and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
