Carne Asada-Style Steak & Fries

with Queso, Corn Chips & Salsa Verde

Some say that carne asada (literally translates to "grilled meat") is the best way to enjoy a steak and we'll be inclined to agree after tasting this fancy Mexican-style feast. Tender, juicy steak is topped by a herby salsa verde, best enjoyed with a side of queso and crunchy corn chips for dipping. The hardest part about this tasty collection of dishes is what to dig into first!

• Place beef rump between two sheets of baking paper. Pound beef with a meat mallet or rolling pin until slightly flattened. Season beef with salt and pepper. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook beef, turning, for 5-6 minutes (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Transfer the steak to a plate to rest.

• While the steak is resting, heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. • SPICY! You may find the spice blend hot! Add less if you're sensitive to heat. Cook garlic, Mexican Fiesta spice blend (see ingredients) and the plain flour until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the milk and cream (see ingredients) and cook until thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Remove from heat, then add grated Parmesan cheese and stir to combine. Transfer queso to serving dish and top with spring onion.
