Ingredients

  • 2 small sweet potatoes, scrubbed
  • 2 tbsp Essential Olive Oil
  • 220g frozen Essential Petits Pois
  • 25g pack coriander, including stalks (or parsley)
  • ¼ x 15g pack oregano, leaves picked
  • 1 small clove garlic, grated
  • tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp chilli flakes, to taste
  • 300g pack Essential British Beef Sizzle Steaks

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7. Cut the sweet potatoes into thin wedges, spread out on a large oven tray, then drizzle and toss in 1 tbsp oil. Season and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway.

  2. Meanwhile, bring a small saucepan of water to the boil. Add the peas, bring back to a simmer, cook for 2-3 minutes, then drain well and set aside.

  3. Reserve some coriander leaves, then put the rest into the bowl of a small food processor. Add the oregano, garlic, vinegar, chilli flakes the drained peas and ½ tbsp oil. Season and blitz to a rough paste, leaving some texture. Cover with the lid until needed.

  4. Pat the steaks dry with kitchen paper, then rub with the remaining oil and season well. Heat a frying pan over a high heat and cook the steaks for 1-2 minutes each side, turning frequently, until well browned and thoroughly cooked. Transfer the steaks to a board, allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice. Serve with the smashed peas, potato wedges and reserved coriander leaves.

Cook’s tip
