BUTTERNUT
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, African rub, and some seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
TOASTED SEEDS
Place the pumpkin seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until beginning to pop and they turn brown. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside.
HARISSA DRESSING & BASTING
In a small bowl, combine the Greek yoghurt, ⅓ of the harissa paste, and some seasoning. In a separate bowl, mix together the remaining harissa paste and honey for the steak basting.
SAUTEED KALE
Place the shredded kale in a bowl with a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Using your hands, gently massage until softened and coated in oil. Place a nonstick pan over a medium heat. When hot, sauté the kale for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from the pan and combine with the peas and chopped pickled peppers. Cover with a plate and set aside to keep warm.
FIERY STEAK
Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the steak dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, sear the steak, fat-side down, for 3-5 minutes until crispy. Then, fry for 2-4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your preference. During the final 1-2 minutes, baste with the honey-harissa basting. Remove from the pan on completion and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and lightly seasoning.
