- Creamed horseradish carries milk; the mustard alternative carries mustard. Grated horseradish root on its own carries neither.

Ingredients
- Rye bread2 slices
- Cooked lean beef150 g
Weighed cooked, since this is leftovers. Raw, the same protein figure needs about 190 g.
- Rocket25 g
- Tomato60 g
- Horseradish or mustard10 g
Method
Slice the cold beef as thinly as you can against the grain.
Spread the mustard on both slices, layer the beef, tomato and rocket, and press it together firmly.
Worth knowing
- Against the grain matters more with cold beef than hot. Sliced with it, leftover steak eats like rope.
