From your kitchen
  • ½ tbsp + 2 tsp olive oil

You'll need
  • Large roasting tin or baking tray

Step by step this way
  • 1.

    Preheat your oven to 200°C/Fan 180°C/Gas 6. Scrub the potatoes and slice them into 1cm-thick chips. Spread out in large roasting tin or baking tray. Drizzle with ½ tbsp olive oil and toss to coat. Slide into the oven to bake for 15 mins.

  • 2.

    Quarter the tomatoes, pop in a bowl and toss with 1 tsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. When the chips have cooked for 15 mins, add the tomatoes to the tray or tin. Roast for a further 15 mins, till the chips are golden brown and the tomatoes just tender.

  • 3.

    Meanwhile, thickly slice the mushrooms. Peel and crush the garlic. Pick the leaves off the rosemary sprigs and finely chop them.

  • 4.

    Pop the watercress in a bowl. Drizzle with 1 tsp olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to dress, then set aside.

  • 5.

    Season the minute steaks. Warm a frying pan for 3-4 mins till it’s smoking hot. Add half the butter and quickly swirl it round the pan, then add the steaks and fry for 30 secs-1 min on each side for rare, or add 1-2 mins more for well done. Pop the steaks on a warm board or plate and loosely wrap them in foil. Leave them to rest.

  • 6.

    Add the remaining butter to the pan and turn the heat down to medium-low. Add the mushrooms. Season, then stir in the garlic and rosemary.

  • 7.

    Fry the mushrooms for 3-4 mins, stirring, till golden. Turn the heat down to low. Pour in the cream. Stir and cook for 1-2 mins till the sauce is warm. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve the minute steaks with the chips, roast tomatoes, watercress and mushroom sauce.
