Skirt Steak And Sweet Potato Fries Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 7 and put a wire rack on top of a baking tray. Toss the sweet potatoes and thyme with 2 tsp oil in a bowl, then scatter them over the rack and set aside until ready to cook.
• Heat 1 tsp oil in a non-stick pan, add the onions, cover the pan and leave to cook for 5 mins. Take off the lid and stir - they should be a little charred now. Stir in the green pepper and garlic, cover the pan and cook for 5 mins more. Put the potatoes in the oven and bake for 15 mins.
• While the potatoes are cooking, stir the paprika into the onions and peppers, pour in 150ml water and stir in the cherry tomatoes, tomato purée and bouillon. Cover and simmer for 10 mins.
• Pan-fry the steak in a hot, non-stick pan for 2-3 mins each side depending on their thickness. Rest for 5 mins. Spoon the goulash sauce onto plates and top with the beef. Serve the chips and spinach alongside.

Steps:

• First make your sweet potato sauce. Using a vegetable juicer, juice 6 sweet potatoes, cut into small pieces, skin left on. Once you have enough juice, about 3 1/2 cups, let it stand for about 4 hours. This will allow much of the potato starch in the juice to settle. Trim 1 large sweet potato and cut it into hockey puck size sections. Trim sides. Rub the potato steaks with a bit of the grapeseed oil and season with salt and pepper. Place steaks on a grill pan and mark. Take your sliced filet mignon, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle the steak fries with the Wondra flour. Transfer to a hot saute pan with tablespoon grapeseed oil. Saute steak fries until well browned and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels, and let rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Next transfer the potato steaks to a foil lined baking sheet. Bake potato steaks until tender in a preheated 350 degree oven. While the potatoes are baking, strain the sweet potato juice into a saucepan over medium heat. Reduce the sauce until you have only 3/4 cup left and the juice has naturally thickened. Stir in the chopped Thai chili, the ginger and strain the sauce. Add the chicken stock and set aside. Plate the potato steaks with the steak fries and sweet potatoes sauce. Garnish with sprigs of fresh pea shoots or watercress.
