Ingredients

BEEF SIRLOIN

  • 600g beef sirloin steaks (at room temperature)
  • 1-2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon salt

BABY POTATO AND SOUR CREAM CRUSH

  • 800g baby potatoes, scrubbed and cut into halves or quarters until they are roughly the same size
  • 1-2 spring onions
  • 125g sour cream

SALAD

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons mustard (e.g. Dijon, wholegrain)
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar (e.g. red wine, white wine, balsamic)
  • 1 cos lettuce
  • 1 punnet cherry tomatoes
  • ½ telegraph cucumber

Steps

  1. a large pot of salted water to the boil. Preheat BBQ hot plate to medium-high (if using).
  2. Pat beef dry with paper towels and place in a large bowl with all remaining beef sirloin ingredients. Mix well to combine and season with pepper. Set aside to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  3. Cook potatoes in pot of boiling water for 20-22 minutes, until tender. Drain well and return to pot. Set aside, covered, to keep warm.
  4. While potatoes cook, whisk together olive oil, mustard and vinegar in a large bowl. Finely shred cos lettuce, halve cherry tomatoes and dice cucumber 1cm. Set all aside.
  5. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on high heat. Cook beef for 1-2 minutes each side (depending on thickness) for medium rare, or until cooked to your liking. Set aside, covered in foil, for at least 5 minutes before slicing thickly.
  6. While steak is resting, add salad vegetables to bowl with dressing and toss to combine. Season to taste. Finely slice spring onions and fold through cooked potatoes with sour cream. Crush potatoes lightly with the back of a fork, or very lightly mash with potato masher. Season to taste.
  7. spoon baby potato and sour cream crush onto plates and top with slices of beef sirloin. Serve salad on the side.
