Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut pumpkin and beetroot into thin wedges. • Place prepped veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
TIP: Pumpkin skin becomes tender after roasting and adds fibre, but you can remove it if you prefer. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays.
• Meanwhile, trim pea pods. • Slice lemon into wedges. • Place your hand flat on top of premium beef eye fillet and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook pea pods, tossing, until tender, 2-3 minutes. • Remove pan from heat. Add wholegrain mustard (see ingredients) and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine. • Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
TIP: Add a dash of water to the pan to help speed up the cooking process!
• See 'Top Steak Tips!' (below). Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook beef eye fillet, until cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side (depending on thickness). • Transfer to a plate to rest.
TIP: If your pan is getting crowded, cook the beef in batches for best results!
• Pick thyme leaves. • Return frying pan to medium heat. Cook sweet & savoury glaze, thyme, a splash of water, the butter, a squeeze of lemon juice and any beef resting juices, stirring to combine. Simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Season to taste, then remove pan from heat.
• Slice beef eye fillet. • Divide fillet, roast veggies and mustard pea pods between plates. • Crumble fetta cubes over roast veggies. Pour thyme glaze over beef. Top with flaked almonds. • Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
