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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
