PERI-PERI WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the sweet potato wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the Peri-Peri Rub to taste, and some seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and starting to crisp, shifting halfway.
SALSA VERDE TIME!
Place the chopped parsley and coriander in a bowl and add the grated garlic to taste. Mix in 15ml of olive oil, the juice of 2 lemon wedges, and some lemon zest to taste. Season to taste and set aside for serving.
POP THOSE PUMPKIN SEEDS
Place the pumpkin seeds in a nonstick pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until they begin to pop and turn brown. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.
SEAR THE SIRLOIN
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the steak dry with some paper towel. When the pan is hot, sear the steak fat-side down for 2-3 minutes until the fat is crispy. Then, fry each side for 2-4 minutes, or until cooked to your preference. (The time this takes will depend on the thickness of the steak.) During the final 1-2 minutes, baste the steak with a knob of butter. On completion, remove from the pan and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season the slices.
CRISP SIDE SALAD
Place the rinsed salad leaves, cucumber rounds, radish rounds, and toasted pumpkin seeds in a salad bowl. Crumble over the drained feta and toss together with a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice.
HEARTY & HEALTHY
Dish up the crispy peri-peri wedges alongside the juicy sirloin slices. Liberally drizzle the salsa verde sauce over the sirloin. Serve the garden salad on the side and garnish with a remaining lemon wedge. Tuck in, Chef!
