Minute Steak Melt
This is the daddy of steak sandwiches: sweet, sticky caramelised red onions, flash fried steak, topped off with melted cheese. You'll make a cheat's aioli (garlic mayonnaise), a dressing for your salad and a dip for your homemade wedges. Hubba!

Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ 425°F/ Gas 7
Cut the potatoes (skin on) into 2cm wedges and place on a baking tray with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) vegetable oil and a large pinch of salt
Toss to coat well and place them in the oven for 30 min or until golden brown

Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry with kitchen towel and coat evenly on both sides with 1 tsp (2 tsp) vegetable oil and plenty of salt
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) over a high heat
Once very hot, add the steaks and cook for 1 min on each side

Transfer the cooked steaks to a chopping board and cover with a tea towel to rest
Peel and finely slice the onion(s)
Return the same pan to a medium heat with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) vegetable oil
Add the onion with a pinch of salt (to draw out the moisture)
Cook for 5 min or until translucent and softened, stirring occasionally

Meanwhile, peel and grate (or very finely chop) the garlic
Combine 1 tsp (2 tsp) red wine vinegar (save the rest for step 5) with the mayonnaise and garlic in a large mixing bowl
Mix with 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) olive oil and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) hot water, then season generously with salt and pepper - this is your aioli

Once the onion is soft, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) sugar, Henderson's relish, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and the remaining red wine vinegar to the pan
Reduce the heat to very low and simmer gently for another 10-15 min or until sticky and sweet
Meanwhile, put the ciabattas in the oven for 5 min or until crusty and hot

Slice the cheese into 2 (4) slices
Slice the steak
Wash half (all) the salad (use any remainder for lunch tomorrow) in cold water and pat dry with tea towel
Once hot, remove the ciabattas from the oven and slice in half

Remove your cooked wedges from the oven, turn the oven off and switch the grill to high
Layer over the bottom half of the ciabatta some sticky onions, followed by the steak and top with cheese
Place under the grill for 1-2 min or until the cheese has melted

Set aside half the aioli as a dip for the wedges and toss the salad through the remainder
Enjoy!
