1 tsp garlic granules
2 tsp mild chilli powder

at room temperature
200g oven fries
1 tbsp hot sauce
1 tbsp butter
to serve salad leaves

BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

50g dolcelatte
1 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tbsp greek yogurt
1 tsp white wine vinegar

Method

step 1
Mix the garlic granules and chilli powder, and season well. Oil the steaks then sprinkle 2 tsp of the spice mix over both sides and rub in. Leave to marinate for 10 minutes.
step 2
Cook the fries following pack instructions. Sprinkle over and toss through the remaining spice mixture for the final 5 minutes of cooking time.
step 3
Use a small food processor to whizz the cheese sauce ingredients together, adding a splash of water if it seems a little thick, and season (or mash together in a bowl – you won’t get as smooth a sauce but it will still taste good).
step 4
Heat a griddle pan or heavy frying pan to high and cook the steaks for 2 minutes on each side, then rest under foil.
step 5
Melt the hot sauce and butter together in a small pan. Tip in any resting juices and slice the steak. Serve on warm plates with the fries, salad and the hot butter sauce spooned over. Serve the blue cheese sauce in a bowl for dipping.
