INGREDIENTS

Chopped potato and kumara, pre-baked with oil and thyme
4 x 100g rump steaks
2 tablespoons oil
200g punnet grape tomatoes
100g green beans, trimmed, blanched
Prepared hollandaise, to serve

METHOD

  1. Place potato and kumara in a bowl. Season to taste. Mash roughly until combined. Form into 4 even-sized patties. Chill until required.
  2. Preheat a char-grill or barbecue on high.
  3. Place steaks in a shallow dish. Drizzle with oil and season to taste. Toss well.
  4. Char-grill steaks for 2-3 minutes each side, until cooked to taste. Rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Slice thinly.
  5. Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan on high. Cook potato patties for 4-5 minutes each side, until golden and warmed through. Cook tomatoes with patties, until tender.
  6. Serve steak with potato cake, tomatoes and beans. Drizzle with hollandaise.


Top tip
  • It may be cheaper to buy a large piece of rump and cut it into smaller portions.
  • If liked, warm the hollandaise following packet instructions.
