How to Make Miller Amd Carter Beef Dripping Saice
Scroll down for a free downloadable recipe card!
The other week I went out for a meal with my parents. We went to Miller & Carter steakhouse. If you're from the UK, you may already be aware that they serve a lettuce wedge as a side dish with a steak. It is literally what it sounds – a wedge of iceberg lettuce. You can pick your sauce that is drizzled on top. I went for the honey, mustard and bacon option. It was delicious. I have since appeared to have developed a sort of mild obsession with this dish. About three days passed after our meal, I could not take it any longer; I needed to eat the lettuce wedge again. That could have been a good excuse for me to pop back and enjoy another meal at Miller & Carter, but that would likely become an expensive obsession to maintain. I needed to make it myself…
I scoured the internet to find an easy honey & mustard sauce, determined to do this myself, not take the easy pre-bottled route. So off I went to the shop, clutching a list of supplies, hopeful. The lettuce wedge snack almost in sight…
This recipe makes a decent amount of sauce, but if you're eating it at the rate I am, it will last you 2-3 days. Consider doubling these measurements if you want to avoid making it a few times a week!
This Recipe is:
- Gluten Free
- Vegetarian (without the optional ham topping)
- Vegan (with a honey substitute, no toppings & possible different mustard type)

What you will need:
Ingredients:
- 1/4 iceberg lettuce
- 1 clove garlic (finely chopped/crushed)
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp cider vinegar
- 6 tbsp sunflower oil
- Salt & pepper
- Extra toppings of your choice
Equipment:
- Measuring spoons
- Small jug/bowl/container
- Spatula
- Knife
- Food processor (it may also work with some sort of smoothie maker)
How to make it:
Firstly, peel and cut your garlic glove. (You can leave this step out if you are not a garlic lover.) You can also crush the garlic if you prefer, but I find there is no need once it has been whizzed up in the food processor.
Secondly, measure out your ingredients. Put the garlic, honey, mustard, cider vinegar and balsamic vinegar all in one bowl. Measure out the sunflower oil and put that into a separate container. Give the honey mixture a bit of a stir to lift the honey from sticking to the bowl.
Then, pour the honey mixture into the food processor, making sure to spoon out any residue honey! Blend these together (with the lid on!) for about 30 seconds.
Following this, pour in the sunflower oil while the food processor is still mixing. Blend again for another 20-30 seconds.
Finally, add in some salt and pepper, to taste, before mixing again for a final few seconds. Pour your mixture out into a suitable container and place in the fridge to chill for a few minutes.
Then prepare your lettuce and toppings. I like to cut about 1/4 section of a whole iceberg lettuce which I find is just the right portion size as a snack or an addition to a small lunch. Make sure to quickly wash the lettuce before cutting your section. For toppings, I like to chop up some ham into small squares or grate some cheese. You could also do some bacon pieces (to stay true to the Miller & Carter inspiration.) Whatever takes your fancy!
Once chilled, drizzle your sauce over your lettuce wedge, making sure it pools inside the crevices. Then follow up with a sprinkle of your desired topping, and drizzle a bit more sauce on top of that!
Store in the fridge and give it a quick stir before use! I would recommend to use it within a week or so.
Et voila! You have a very tasty, very addictive, crunchy and healthy snack! The sauce can also be used as a normal salad dressing, or as a dip for all sorts of things! This has been my go-to lunch the last few days, I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do!
