  1. ROAST VEG

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut & beetroot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the dried thyme, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. FRY THE STEAK

    When the roast has 8-10 minutes remaining, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the steak dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the steak fat-side down until crispy, 3-5 minutes. Flip the steak and sear until browned, 2-4 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final minute, baste with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.

  3. JUST BEFORE SERVING

    In a small bowl, loosen the creamy horseradish with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency, and season.

  4. DINNER IS READY

    Plate up the rinsed green leaves and the roast veg, and side with the steak slices. Drizzle the creamy horseradish over it all to finish. Delish, Chef!
