UN-BEET-ABLE ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Beetroot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).
GLAZE WITH A KICK
In a small bowl, combine the Brown Sugar, the Balsamic Vinegar, the sliced Chilli (to taste), 30ml of water, and the grated garlic. Set aside.
NUTS ABOUT PISTACHIOS
Place the chopped pistachios in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
STEAK YOUR CLAIM
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). Remove the steak and reserve the juices in the pan.
ALL ABOUT THE BASTE
When the Beetroot has 10 minutes remaining, return the pan to medium-low heat with the reserved pan juices. Add the balsamic-sugar glaze. Simmer until starting to thicken, 5-6 minutes. Once thickened, return the steak back to the pan and baste in the sauce until cooked to your preference, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 5 minutes, reserving the glaze. Slice and lightly season.
JUST BEFORE SERVING
In a salad bowl, combine the cooked Beetroot, the rinsed Green Leaves, the toasted pistachios, the chopped apricots, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
TIME TO MUNCH
Plate up the Beetroot salad and crumble over the goat’s cheese. Side with the glazed rump slices and drizzle over the reserved glaze (to taste). Garnish with the picked parsley. Well done, Chef!
