  1. CRISPY & DELISH

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut chunks on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and crisping up, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. ZING & CRUNCH

    In a bowl (big enough for the salad), add the pickling liquid and seasoning. Toss through the diced tomatoes. Set aside to pickle. Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. STEAK-A-LICIOUS

    Return the pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the fillet dry with paper towel and season. When hot, fry the fillet until browned, 2-3 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste the fillet with a knob of butter, the NOMU rub, and the grated garlic. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.

  4. BLANCH GREEN BEANS

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a splash of water. When starting to bubble, simmer the sliced green beans until cooked al dente, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside to cool.

  5. SALADY THINGS

    To the bowl with the pickled tomatoes, add the rinsed leaves, the green beans, ½ the chopped parsley, 5ml of olive oil, and seasoning.

  6. SERVE THE STEAK!

    Plate up the crispy butternut alongside the juicy garlic steak slices. Serve the zingy tomato salad on the side. Garnish with the remaining parsley and the toasted sunflower seeds. Brilliant work, Chef!
