Ingredients

  • 2 medium baking potatoes , total weight about 500g/1lb 2oz, each cut into about 8 wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1-2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 140g pack Delamere brie-type goat's cheese , at room temperature
  • 3 tbsp crème fraîche
  • 1 tbsp green peppercorns , drained and lightly crushed
  • 2 x 200g/8oz sirloin steaks , about the same thickness as your finger
  • 2 handfuls of watercress

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to fan 160C/conventional 180C/gas 4. Tip the wedges into a roasting tin and toss them in the oil and thyme. Roast for 35-45 minutes, turning once, until they’re crispy on the outside and soft in the middle.
  • About 15 minutes before the wedges are ready, remove the rind from the goat’s cheese and discard, then cut into chunks. Put it into a small bowl and microwave on Medium for 1 minute to melt. Beat in the crème fraîche, return to the microwave and heat for another minute on Medium until the cheese and crème fraîche have melted into a sauce. Season with salt and the peppercorns and stir.
  • Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Season the steaks with black pepper and cook them for 2 minutes on each side for rare, or up to 4 minutes on each side for well done. Divide the sauce between two bowls for dipping.
