Chop the parsley and coriander finely, including the stalks
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
Combine the chopped chilli (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), parsley, coriander and garlic (not a fan of raw garlic? Just add a little!) with the dried oregano, red wine vinegar, 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] olive oil and a pinch of salt – this is your chimichurri
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) over a high heat
Pat the rump steaks dry with kitchen paper, drizzle them with vegetable oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper on both sides
Once very hot, add the seasoned steaks to the pan
For rare, cook for 2 min max on each side; for medium-rare, cook for 2-3 min on each side; for medium, cook for 3-4 min on each side
Once the steaks are cooked, transfer them to a clean board to rest, reserving the pan
Return the reserved pan to a medium-low heat
Once hot, crack the eggs into the pan, then cover with a lid and cook for 2-3 min or until done to your liking
Tip: Give your eggs a little shake before you crack for perfectly centred yolks!
Slice the rested steaks and wash the rocket, then pat it dry with kitchen paper
Add the crispy potatoes and roasted veg to a plate with the sliced steak to the side
Top with the rocket and a fried egg and drizzle the chimichurri all over
Enjoy!
