Rump Steak and Chips

Very easy to prepare and yet such a satisfying and posh dinner. Rump is quite a good cut of meat, but you don't pay as much as for a sirloin or a fillet. It's a  Saturday night dinner for two :] So my man decided to surprise me with a nice steak.

Steak and Chips

Prepartion : 10 minutes
Cooking time : 30 minutes
Total time: 40 minutes
Serves 2
Level : medium


Ingredients

2 rump steaks (200g each)
Asparagus
Pancetta
chips
Carrots
Butter
Bread and butter to serve


I used some oven chips. Preheat the oven and follow the instruction on the pack to cook.
Wrap the asparagus in pancetta , bundles of three. Drizzle with some olive oil and bake in the oven for ten minutes with your chips.
Peel and chop you carrots boil , drain and saute in some butter. I like mine with a little crunch to them!
Rest your meat for at least 10 minutes at room temperature before cooking. Drizzle some oil on the and season well on both sides.
Put them in hot dry pan . Sear them on both sides on a high heat, and then cook for four minutes on each side on a moderate heat. (the thickness of the meat might cook in different times, and appliances vary too.) Set a side in a warm place for 2/3minutes.
Add some butter to your pan with the juices of the meat. Pour onto the meat and serve along side with the chips , carrots and aspagargus. Maybe a nice glass of red wine.
