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.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a large frying pan, a small saucepan & a measuring jug

Make the fries

  • Remove the steaks from the fridge and allow to come to room temperature. Season both sides with salt and pepper
  • Cut the sweet potatoes into fries. Place the fries onto the lined baking tray and toss with 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 15-20 mins

Pickle the rhubarb

  • Thinly slice the rhubarb widthways. Trim the broccoli. Finely slice the onions. Finely chop the chives
  • In the small saucepan, add the honey, fennel seeds, vinegar and 100ml water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat
  • Add the rhubarb, remove the pan from the heat and set aside to pickle

Sizzle the steaks

  • Heat the large frying pan with 2 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and cook (as a guide: cook for 3-4 mins on each side for medium-rare, or 6-7 mins for well done). Quickly sear the edges of the steaks, then leave to rest
  • After 15-20 mins, add the broccoli to the sweet potato tray, drizzle with 1 tsp oil and return to the over for a final 10 mins

Make the sauce

  • Reheat the frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook for 4-5 mins, until softened. Season with salt and pepper
  • Strain the pickled rhubarb, pouring the pickling liquid into the onion pan. Set the rhubarb slices aside
  • Stir the stock powder, chives and 100ml water into the onion mixture. Bring to a simmer for 2-3 mins, until thickened slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add a splash of water if it becomes too thick

Plate up

  • Slice the steaks against the grain
  • Serve the steaks onto plates, with the sweet potato fries, broccoli and salad leaves alongside. Top the salad with the pickled rhubarb and drizzle the chive sauce over the steaks
