Tagliata
with Roasted Garlic and Sweet Potato Chips
Like fish, perfectly cooking a piece of steak can be a little intimidating if you haven’t had much practice. Our top tips are: 1) take your steak out of the fridge an hour before you plan to cook it, so that it comes nearer to room temperature 2) get your pan really hot before cooking and 3) once you’ve cooked it, leave it to rest for a few minutes before slicing. Easy!

Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Instructions
Pre-heat your oven to 210 degrees. Scrub (but don’t peel) your sweet potatoes under some water. Cut them in half lengthways. Cut each half lengthways into three pieces (or four pieces if it’s a big ‘un). Chop the cherry tomatoes in half.
Coat the sweet potatoes and garlic (leave the bulb whole and skin on!) in 2 tbsp of olive oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Place on a baking tray with the leaves of the rosemary scattered over. Put everything in the oven on the top shelf for 25 mins.
LH: Mix 5 tbsp of the best quality olive oil you can get your hands on with your chilli flakes, 1 tsp of dried oregano, a finger pinch of sea salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Pour half the mixture onto a baking tray along with your cherry tomatoes. Give the tray a shake and pop in the oven for 10 mins, then remove, cover with tin foil and keep to the side.
Heat a non-stick pan on the hob until it is super hot. Add in 2 tbsp of olive oil and when it’s almost smoking, fry the steaks. Cook for 2 mins on each side without touching it in between. Tip: We like our steak medium, but if you want a more well done steak, cook it for a little longer.
Add the rest of your olive oil marinade to a tray, remove the steak from the pan, add it to the tray with the olive oil marinade. cover with foil and let it marinate for at least 3 mins on each side.
Remove the steaks and slice it into 1cm thick slices on the diagonal. Reserve the marinade as you can pour this over the finished dish.
Take your potatoes out of the oven. Your roasted sweet potatoes should be crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. Squeeze the garlic from its skin back in with the sweet potatoes. These should be soft and slightly caramelised. Tip: If you’re not a huge garlic fan, you can leave the garlic out. Serve the steak slices on top of the rocket and roasted tomatoes, pour over any remaing marinade, add the roasted sweet potatoes on the side and get stuck in!
