Ingredients
2 medium desiree potatoes, thinly sliced
1 medium orange sweet potato, peeled, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 (150g each) beef rump steaks
Olive oil cooking spray
100g baby rocket
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Pinch caster sugar

Chilli salt spice rub
1/2 teaspoon hot chilli powder
1 tablespoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Method

Step 1. Place desiree potato in a microwave-safe bowl. Add 2 teaspoons cold water. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Microwave on high (100%) for 2 to 3 minutes or until just tender. Drain.

Step 2. Drizzle potato and sweet potato with olive oil. Heat a barbecue chargrill or chargrill pan on medium-high heat. Cook potato, in batches, for 3 to 4 minutes each side or until charred and tender. Transfer to a large bowl.

Step 3. Meanwhile, make Chilli salt spice rub: Combine chilli powder, salt, garlic powder, thyme, pepper and jalapeno chilli in a bowl.

Step 4. Coat steaks evenly with rub, pressing to secure. Spray with oil. Cook on barbecue chargrill for 4 to 5 minutes each side, for medium, or until browned and cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate. Cover with foil. Set aside for 5 minutes to rest.

Step 5. Place potatoes and rocket in a bowl. Using a fork, whisk vinegar, oil and sugar together until combined. Pour over salad. Toss gently to combine. Serve steaks with salad.
