Instructions

Make the Mash
1
  • Boil a pot of water for the veg with half the stock.
  • Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peeling optional). Place in a separate pot.
  • Cover with water, season with salt, bring to the boil and cook until fork tender, 12-18 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain (reserving some cooking water) and return to the pot off the heat.
  • Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk or cooking water. Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
Get Prepped
2
  • Meanwhile, trim the green beans.
  • Halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces.
  • Pick the sage leaves and roughly chop (discard the stalks).
  • Trim the carrot, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Chop into roughly 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.
Cook the Veg
3
  • When the water is boiling, add the carrot and green beans to the pot with the stock.
  • Cook until just tender, 4-6 mins.
  • Drain in a colander, then return to the pot, off the heat. 
  • Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil. Set aside and cover to keep warm.
Fry the Beef
4
  • Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Season the beef with salt and pepper.
  • Fry the beef until browned, 1-2 mins each side for medium-rare.
  • Cook for another 1-2 mins on each side if you like it medium and a further 1-2 mins on each side if you want it well-done. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat and its packaging. Meat is safe to eat when the outside is browned. 
  • Transfer to a board, cover and rest.

NOTE: If you've chosen to swap to turkey,  add the turkey to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and cook through, 3-6 mins each side.

Simmer the Sauce
5
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Add the shallot and cook until softened, 3-4 mins.
  • Add the sage then fry for 1 min more.
  • Deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and add the creme fraiche, remaining stock and 50ml water.
  • Simmer until smooth, 2-3 mins.
Finish and Serve
6
  • Thinly slice the beef and divide between plates.
  • Drizzle over the sauce. 
  • Serve with the mash and veg alongside.
