Ingredients

  • Rump steak, fat trimmed170 g

    Weighed raw. The same piece weighed after cooking has lost water, so the protein per gram is higher and the total would come out about a quarter over.

    Stirred into the pan off the heat so it does not split.

Method

  1. Boil the potatoes in salted water until a knife slides in with no resistance, about twenty minutes. Drain, steam dry for a minute, then mash with the butter and season.

  2. Steam or boil the tenderstem for three minutes while the potatoes finish.

  3. Sear the salted steak in a hot dry pan for three minutes a side, then move it to a plate to rest.

  4. Add the crushed pepper and stock to the same pan and boil hard until reduced by half, scraping up the brown bits. Take the pan off the heat, stir in the mustard and yogurt, and pour it over the sliced steak.

Worth knowing

  • A cream peppercorn sauce is 150 kcal or more per serving. The yogurt version is about 30 kcal and tastes sharper, which suits the steak.
  • The yogurt must go in off the heat. Boiled, it separates into grains and the sauce is ruined.
