Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C (or 200°C fan bake). Bring a small pot of salted water to the boil.

  5. While beef rests, add broccoli to boiling water and cook for about 3 minutes, until bright green and tender. Add bok choy to pot, stir and remove from heat. Drain well. Return vegetables to pot and mix through soy sauce.
  6. Beef fillet with sticky kūmara and vegetables. Dollop over sesame mayo and sprinkling of togarashi.
