  1. MASH

    Place the Potato pieces into a pot of salted water. Bring to the boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional), the grated cheese, and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, season, and cover.

  2. TOAST

    Place the Hazelnuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. HOMEMADE PESTO

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the grated garlic until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Remove from the pan and add to the blender with ½ the rinsed Rocket, the toasted nuts, lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice (to taste), and the dried chilli flakes (to taste). Add 40ml of olive oil and 20ml of water. Blend until smooth and season. Loosen with a splash of water if too thick.

  4. SIZZLING RUMP

    Place a grill pan or return the pan to 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.

  5. QUICK SALAD

    In a bowl, add the remaining Rocket, the sliced Radish, the Cucumber half-moons, the cheese ribbons, a squeeze of the remaining lemon juice (to taste), and a drizzle of oil. Toss to combine and season.

  6. TIME TO EAT

    Plate up the creamy mash, side with the sliced steak, and the fresh salad. Drizzle the homemade pesto over the steak. Well done, Chef!
