Method

  • step 1

    To make the sauce, put the pepper, jalapeño and garlic in a small food processor, and pulse a few times. Add the herbs, cumin, oil and vinegar, and blend, adding a splash of water if needed to bring together. Season.

  • step 2

    To cook the steak, oil both sides then season well. Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat a heavy frying pan until very hot. Hold the steak fat-side down for 2-3 mins to render a little, then sear for 2 mins on each side until you have a good colour. Add a knob of butter and a couple of sprigs of thyme to the pan, and put in the oven for 5 mins. Remove the steak to a warm plate, loosely cover and rest for 10 mins.

  • step 3

    Dress the rocket with a little oil and vinegar, and season. Put on a platter then thinly slice the steak and lay on top. Spoon over the mojo sauce and serve.
