Have you met this week’s star ingredient: black garlic? There’s no trickery involved – the eye-catching colour is created by ageing the garlic so it caramelises and creates a unique sweet and mellow flavour. Paired with a perfectly cooked steak and creamy baked gratin, this is a special occasion dinner at its best. Finish your fine-dining feast with the very best kind of chocolate pudding – a self-saucing one! Cakey on top and with a rich chocolate sauce underneath, it's an indulgent dessert that is sure to please.

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Place peeled pumpkin pieces on a lined oven tray, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out evenly and roast until just tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice herbs. Finely chop garlic. Trim and halve baby broccoli lengthways. Peel black garlic. • In a small bowl, mash black garlic with a fork until smooth, then add mayonnaise. Stir to combine and set aside. • In a medium bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients) with a drizzle of olive oil, then season.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook the butter, herbs and garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the plain flour and cook, stirring, until a thick paste forms, 2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, then slowly whisk in the milk until smooth. Stir through the salt and grated Parmesan cheese, then season with pepper. • Add the roasted pumpkin and gently stir to coat. Transfer to a baking dish. • Evenly top with the panko mixture, then bake until golden and bubbling, 10-15 minutes.
• While the gratin is baking, wash and dry the frying pan, then return to high heat. Season premium fillet steak, then add to the hot pan. Sear steak until browned, 1 minute on all sides. • Transfer to the lined oven tray and roast for 8-10 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. • Remove steak from the oven and set aside to rest.
TIP: The meat will keep cooking while it rests!
• While the steak is roasting, return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook baby broccoli, tossing, until just tender, 5-6 minutes. Season to taste.
TIP: Add a dash of water to help speed up the veggie cooking process.
• Slice premium fillet steak. • Divide pumpkin and herb gratin, steak and baby broccoli between plates. • Pour any resting juices over steak and top with black garlic mayo to serve. Enjoy!
