Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Preheat the oven to 220C / fan 200C / gas mark 7 / air fryer 190C. Halve the potatoes lengthways. Cut the carrots into 2cm thick batons. Place on a lined baking tray and toss with 2 tsp oil, half the honey, and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Roast for 15 mins / air fryer 10 mins.
  2. Slice half the beetroot into quarters. After 15 mins of roasting, add the beetroot to the veg tray. Roast everything for another 10-15 mins/ air fryer 5-8 mins, until all the veg is soft and golden. In the final 3 mins of roasting, add the pumpkin seeds to the tray to toast.
  3. Heat a medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium heat. Season the steaks with sea salt and cook (as a guide: 3-4 mins per side for medium-rare, or 5-6 mins for well-done). Remove and leave to rest then thinly slice against the grain.
  4. Make the tahini dressing; zest and quarter the lemon. In a small bowl, mix the tahini, zest, juice from 2 lemon wedges, remaining honey, a pinch of sea salt and 1-2 tsp water.
  5. Make the harissa dressing; in a separate bowl, mix the harissa with 1 tsp water until smooth.
  6. Before serving, toss the za'atar through the roasted veg and pumpkin seeds. Serve on plates with the steak. Drizzle over both dressings. Garnish with the pea shoots and remaining lemon wedges.
