    So much for Sunday lunch. First, I knew there was no way the potatoes would cook in the time allotted, so I cooked them a lot longer, but they’re still not cooked and the dish is almost finished. At one point, we are instructed to add the Dijon mustard, but there is no mustard listed in the ingredients. There is 400 ml of water (that’s a significant amount!), but we are not instructed to add it at any point.
