Cooking Steps
• See Top Steak Tips! (below left). Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. • Cut potato into bite-sized chunks. • Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 10-15 minutes. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. Trim ends of asparagus. Thinly slice carrot into sticks. Slice leek into 1cm thick rounds. • Place beef rump between two sheets of baking paper. Pound beef with a meat mallet or rolling pin until slightly flattened. Season beef with salt and pepper.
• Drain the potatoes well then transfer to a lined oven tray. • Season generously with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
TIP: Tossing and roughing the edges helps the potatoes get crisp edges while roasting!
• Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook the beef, turning, for 5-9 minutes (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate to rest.
• While the beef is cooking, heat a second large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook asparagus and carrot until tender, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
TIP: Add a splash of water to the pan to speed up the cooking process!
• While beef is resting, wipe out frying pan then return to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook leek, tossing, until slightly charred, 1-2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Reduce heat to medium, then add the water, vegetable stock powder, the butter and balsamic vinegar and cook, tossing, to combine. • Cover with a lid or foil, and simmer until tender and liquid has slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.
• Slice steak. • Divide beef rump steak, twice-cooked potatoes, and veggies between plates. • Top beef with braised leek and any remaining pan sauce. • Serve with Italian truffle mayonnaise. Enjoy!
