Cooking Steps
Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Remove the steaks from your fridge to allow them to come up to room temperature.
Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel). Pop the potatoes onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.
Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the shallot. Trim the bottom 2cm from the asparagus and discard. Trim the green beans.
Lay the bacon rashers on a board. Divide the asparagus between each slice across the middle, then wrap the bacon around to create parcels.
Repeat with the remaining asparagus and bacon, then place them seam-side down on a lightly oiled baking tray. Drizzle with oil and season with pepper.
Bake on the middle shelf until the asparagus is tender and the bacon is golden brown and crispy, 15-20 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.
When the asparagus are almost halfway through cooking, add the green beans to the asparagus tray.
Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Return to the oven for the remaining time, 8-10 mins.
Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. TIP: Lamb steaks naturally vary in shape, so adjust the following timings depending on how you like yours cooked.
Once hot, lay the steaks into the pan and fry until browned and medium-rare, 8-10 mins total. Turn every 2 mins. TIP: Cook each side for 1-2 min more if you like it more well done.
Once cooked, transfer to a board, cover with foil and allow to rest for a couple of mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. The lamb is safe to eat when browned on the outside.
While the steaks rest, return the (now empty) pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add the shallot and cook until softened, 3-4 mins.
Once softened, stir the cracked black pepper, chicken stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) into the shallot and allow it to reduce until thickened, 2-3 mins.
Stir in the creme fraiche until combined, then remove from the heat.
Once rested, slice the steak widthways into 1cm thick slices.
When everything's ready, serve the steak on your plates with the bacon wrapped asparagus, green beans and roast potatoes alongside.
Spoon the peppercorn sauce over the steak to finish.
Enjoy!
