Ingredients
For the Sweet Potato Wedges:
2 medium sweet potatoes, washed and cut into wedges
Olive oil
15ml paprika
Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Steak and Egg:
2 x 250g Food Lover’s Market beef rump or sirloin steaks
Pre-heat oven to 180°C. Place the sweet potato wedges on a baking tray and season with salt, pepper and paprika. Drizzle with some olive oil and bake for 30-45 minutes, or until cooked and crispy.
For the Steak & Egg:
Season the steaks with salt and pepper and place them fat-side down in the pan. Turn the heat on and set to a high heat. Fat renders best when you start in a cold pan. Cook on the fat side for about 5-6 minutes until the fat has rendered and is crispy. You will realise you don’t need any further butter or oil. Fry the steak for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest.
Wipe the pan with kitchen towel and heat on a medium heat with a knob of butter. Fry the eggs to your liking.
For the Herbed Garlic Butter:
Mix together all ingredients and season with black pepper.
To serve:
Place a dollop of the herbed garlic butter on the steaks and then top with a fried egg on each steak. Serve with sweet potato wedges.
