Tip

Add the soy sauce to the heated, but not boiling, cream to prevent the sauce from curdling.

1
Pour water into a pot and bring it to a boil. Peel the potatoes, rinse them and cut them into smaller pieces. Salt the boiling water, add the potatoes, reduce the heat and cook for 10–15 minutes.
2
Peel the onion and garlic, finely chop them and place them in a large bowl. Add the minced meat, mixed herbs and spices, salt, pepper and half of the mustard. Mix thoroughly so that the flavours combine evenly.
3
Brush your hands with oil and shape the minced meat into patties.
4
Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4–5 minutes on each side.
5
Pour in the cooking cream, add the remaining mustard and soy sauce. Season with black pepper, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat. Simmer for 6–8 minutes, finally stir in the butter and add salt if needed.
6
Wash the lettuce, cut it into smaller pieces and place it in a bowl. Drizzle with dressing, season with salt and black pepper and toss well.
7
Drain the cooked potatoes, mash them thoroughly and then stir in the butter.
8
Serve the mashed potatoes on plates and accompany with the patties, sauce and salad. Enjoy your meal.

Ground Beef Patties with Pepper Sauce & Roasted Root Vegetables

Golden beef patties with a creamy mustard twist

Beef Patties with Creamy Sauce and Smashed Potatoes is the kind of comforting, home-style dinner that never disappoints. Juicy beef patties, gently seasoned with herbs and spices and pan-seared until beautifully golden, are finished in a velvety mustard cream sauce that brings a pleasant, warming tang. On the side, buttery smashed potatoes add that classic cozy feel, while a crisp little gem salad keeps the whole plate fresh and balanced. It’s ideal for busy weeknights, yet special enough for a relaxed weekend meal with family.

Why Beef Patties with Creamy Sauce stands out

The flavor comes from a smart combination of Dijon mustard, cream, and a small splash of soy sauce, which deepens the sauce without overpowering it. Herb-seasoned minced beef delivers a satisfying, protein-rich main that keeps you full, while the salad adds crunch and lightness. Stirring cold butter into the sauce at the end makes it extra smooth and glossy—simple, but it tastes restaurant-level.

Practical tips and easy variations for success

Cut the potatoes into smaller chunks to speed up cooking. Oil your hands lightly before shaping the patties so the mixture won’t stick. A key trick: add the soy sauce only when the cream is hot but not boiling to help prevent curdling. Prefer a milder sauce? Use a bit less mustard and boost freshness with more chives. You can also swap the salad for cucumber slices or a simple tomato salad.

Serving ideas: sides, drinks, and presentation

Serve family-style: spoon smashed potatoes onto plates, top with patties and plenty of mustard sauce, and add the dressed salad on the side. For extra contrast, offer pickles or a small spoon of lingonberry. Pair with sparkling water and lemon, iced tea, or chilled apple juice.

A versatile comfort meal you’ll cook again

Easy to make, deeply satisfying, and nicely balanced, this is a dependable go-to for everyday dinners and casual hosting alike. Give Beef Patties with Creamy Sauce and Smashed Potatoes a try and enjoy big flavor with minimal fuss.
