Jamie and Jimmy's Friday Night Feast
By Jamie Oliver
About the recipe
Here’s a meaty treat inspired by Mexico to get your taste buds fired up – a nice juicy steak served with a fresh, crunchy salsa and an addictively rich satay-style sauce. Ask your butcher to cut you a thick, double steak so you can get it gnarly on the outside and blushing on the inside.
Recipe From
1 x 3cm thick sirloin steak (300g)
1 Maris Piper potato (300g)
3 fresh green chillies
olive oil
SALSA
½ a bunch of fresh coriander (15g)
½ a bunch of fresh mint (15g)
½ a clove of garlic
1 fresh red chilli
2 spring onions
1 ripe tomato on the vine
extra virgin olive oil
1 lime
PEANUT SAUCE
50g unsalted peanuts
25g sesame seeds
½ teaspoon cumin seeds
1 clove of garlic
1 sprig of fresh thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ a dried smoked chipotle chilli
1 tablespoon tequila
1-2 limes
½ a fresh green chilli
The sauces makes more than you need for this dish so put the leftovers to good use. The peanut sauce is great with chicken, while the salsa is amazing with griddled prawns, or try it in a sandwich with meat or cheese.
You can amplify tenderness and keep it juicy by turning it regularly, trapping the moisture inside while building up a bark-like crust. Peel off the fat and use it to render your potatoes for a deliciously retro side. Get in!
