Cooking steps

Cook the Beef
1
  • Place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Season the beef with salt and pepper.
  • Once the oil is hot, fry the beef until browned, 1-2 mins each side for medium-rare. Cook for another 1-2 mins on each side if you like it medium and a further 1-2 mins on each side if you want it well-done. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat and its packaging. Meat is safe to eat when the outside is browned.
  • Once cooked, transfer to a board, cover and allow to rest.
Cook the Potatoes
2
  • Meanwhile, boil a large pot of salted water.
  • Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks. 
  • Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook until fork tender (take care not to overcook), 10-15 mins.
  • Add the kale for the final 3-4 mins of cooking time. Once cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat.
  • Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Make the Sauce
3
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the garlic until fragrant, 1 min. Add 100ml water (per 2P) along with the stock
  • Stir together and bring to the boil, then simmer until slightly reduced, 2 mins.
  • Stir through the creme fraiche and pesto, then remove the pan from the heat.
  • Season the cooked kale and potatoes with salt and pepper. Add 1 tbsp butter (per 2P) to the pot and stir to coat.
Finish and Serve
4
  • When everything is almost ready, reheat the sauce if needed. Add a splash of water if it's too thick.
  • Slice the beef widthways and divide between plates.
  • Serve the buttery kale and potatoes alongside.
  • Spoon the creamy pesto sauce over the beef to finish.
