Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The jerk seasoning paired with coriander and lemon is a highlight, though some found the overall dish mild and felt a sauce or gravy would round it out nicely.
- Ease of prep: Most found this a quick and straightforward weeknight meal, though a few noted the instructions on when to add the jerk seasoning to the pan could be clearer to avoid burning or smoking.
- Suggestions: Add the jerk seasoning in the last minute of cooking the beef rather than at the start to prevent it burning and sticking. Some also found that root vegetable chips needed longer than 25 minutes in the oven, and suggest spreading them across two trays to help them crisp up. One reviewer deglazed the pan after cooking the beef and used the juices over the vegetables, which worked well.
- Portions: Several reviewers felt the beef portion was on the small side for two people, and a few noted the sweet potato and beetroot were quite small.
- Meat tenderness: Feedback on the beef was mixed — many found it tender and flavoursome, while others found it chewy or gristly; cooking to medium-rare and allowing it to rest before slicing may help.
