Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut carrot and potato into fries. • Place fries on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.
• Meanwhile, place beef rump between two sheets of baking paper. Pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until slightly flattened (this ensures it's extra tender!). • In a medium bowl, combine lemon pepper seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add beef, turning to coat. • When the fries have 10 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook beef, turning, for 5-6 minutes (depending on thickness) or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate to rest.
• While the steak is resting, thinly slice celery. • In a large bowl, combine a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. • Add deluxe salad mix and celery. Toss to combine.
• Slice lemon pepper steak. • Divide steak, veggie fries and rainbow salad between plates. • Serve with mayonnaise. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The lemon pepper seasoning was a highlight for many, adding a zingy, peppery flavour that paired well with the steak. Some found it overpowering and used it as a dipping sauce instead, which worked beautifully.
- Ease of prep: Most found this a quick and easy weeknight cook, with the tenderising step earning particular praise for improving the steak's texture.
- Suggestions: If the lemon pepper seasoning feels too strong, try using it as a dipping sauce rather than a coating. Some customers found the veggie chips benefited from an air fryer when the oven left them soft, and a few added extra potatoes or pumpkin to bulk out the fries.
- Leftovers: At least one customer enjoyed the steak warmed for lunch the next day, though several noted the salad mix should be eaten on the day it is opened as it does not keep well.
- Portions: Many customers felt the quantity of chips — often just one small potato and one small carrot — was not enough for two people, and several added extra vegetables to make the meal more filling.
