Cooking Steps

Bake the bacon sweet potato fries
1

• See ‘Top Steak Tips!’ (below left).

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. 

• Cut sweet potato into fries. Place fries on a lined oven tray.

• Drizzle with olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and toss to coat.

• Bake until tender, 25-30 minutes.

• In the last 8-10 minutes of cook time, sprinkle diced bacon over fries (you may need to break up the bacon with your hands!). Return to oven and bake until melted and golden.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.

Cook the flank steak
2

• Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of 
olive oil over medium-high heat.
• When oil is hot, cook flank steak for
4-5 minutes each side for medium-rare, or until 
cooked to your liking.
• Transfer to a plate, season with salt and pepper
and cover to rest for at least 5 minutes. 

Get prepped
3

• While beef is resting, slice apple into wedges.
• Thinly slice cucumber into rounds. 

Toss the salad
4

• In a large bowl combine apple, cucumber, 
spinach & rocket mix and a drizzle of balsamic
vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.

Finish the steak
5

• Thinly slice flank steak across the grain.


TIP: Flank steak has long fibres running through the 
meat. Cutting across the grain or perpendicular to 
the fibres helps ensure each bite is tender and easy 
to chew.

Finish & serve
6

• Roughly chop roasted almonds.

• Divide flank steak, bacon sweet potato fries and cucumber salad between plates. 

• Sprinkle roasted almonds over salad.

• Serve with mustard mayo. Enjoy!
