INGREDIENTS

  • 250g sweet potatoes, peeled, chopped

  • 250g butternut pumpkin, peeled, chopped

  • 20g unsalted butter

  • 2x 150g scotch steaks

  • 20g salted butter

  • 2 TBS olive oil

  • 200g broccoli, steamed or 100g baby spinach to serve

METHOD

1. Boil the sweet potato and pumpkin in a pot of simmering water for 12-15 minutes until tender.

2. Drain water from the saucepan and wipe dry. Return pumpkin and potato to the pan and shake gently over low heat for 30 seconds to dry out the mixture a bit. Add the butter with some sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, then mash until smooth. Keep warm.

3. Meanwhile, season steaks with salt and pepper (and extra seasonings of choice). Heat a large non-stick frypan over medium-high heat, add olive oil and butter. Add steaks and cook for 2-3 minutes each side for medium-rare (or until done to your liking). Remove the steaks from the pan, cover loosely with foil and set aside.

4. Steam the broccoli in a steamer or in a pot of water is using.

5. Serve the beef and mash with steamed broccoli or spinach.
