BEGIN WITH THE BECHAMÉL
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly).

Season.
BAKE THE Potato BAKE
Lightly grease a small baking dish. Add the Potato, and the onion. Pour over the bechamél. Mix until combined and flatten into a flat layer. Cover the baking dish in tinfoil and bake until cooked through, 35-40 minutes. In the final 5-7 minutes, remove the tinfoil and sprinkle over the cheese. Bake for the remaining time until golden.
SUNNY SEEDS
Boil the kettle. Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
BRING IT TOGETHER
Submerge the Peas in boiling water until plump, 2-3 minutes. Drain and place in a bowl. In a bowl, combine the leaves, the seeds, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning to the bowl. Toss until combined.
SEAR THE STEAK
When the Potato bake has 10 minutes remaining, return the pan to a 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.
