BEEF SCOTCH WITH POTATO GALETTE, WILTED GREENS & HORSERADIS­HCREAM

Ready in: 30 minutes Prep: 10 minutes Cook: 25 minutes Serves: 2-3

Potato galette 400g baby potatoes, peeled and sliced into 0.5cm-thick rounds 2 tablespoon­s melted butter 1 clove garlic, minced

teaspoon dried thyme (or use 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves) Beef scotch

300g beef scotch fillet steaks (at room temperatur­e) Wilted greens cup water teaspoon salt 150g broccolini, woody ends trimmed 2cm (or use 1 small head broccoli, cut into small florets)

salt and pepper.

Layer potatoes on prepared tray, into 15cm-wide circles, until they are about 2 slices high.

Place in oven and cook for 15-20 minutes, until golden and tender. Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium fry-pan on medium-high heat. Pat beef dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.

Cook for 2-3 minutes each side for medium-rare (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking.

Set aside to rest, covered with foil, while you prepare the wilted greens. Wipe same pan clean and return to same heat with water and salt. When it starts to simmer, add broccolini and cook for 2-3 minutes, until just tender.

Add baby kale and toss through until just wilted and liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat, toss through mustard and season with salt. Combine horseradis­h and sour cream together in a small bowl and set aside.

Thinly slice beef against the grain. To serve, carefully use a spatula to divide potato galettes between plates. Top with wilted greens, slices of beef scotch and dollop with horseradis­h cream.
