Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7 and boil a kettle
Take your steak out of the fridge, open the packet and let it adjust to room temperature
Chop your waxy potatoes in half, then add to a pot of plenty of boiled water with a pinch of salt and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, cook for 12-15 min or until fork-tender, then drain and rinse them under cold water until cooled slightly (save the pot for later!)
Whilst the potatoes are cooking, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick with a matching lid) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Pat your rump steak[s] dry with kitchen paper and season both sides with a pinch of salt
Once very hot, add the seasoned steak 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 to a plate to rest
Meanwhile, peel and finely slice your brown onion[s]
Deseed your pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and cut into thin strips
Return the pan to a medium heat, add the sliced onion and pepper strips with a pinch of salt and cook, covered, for 6-8 min or until starting to caramelise
While the onion and pepper are cooking, grate your cheddar cheese
Trim, then slice your spring onion[s]
On a clean chopping board, slice the rested steak as finely as you can
Combine your mayo and wholegrain mustard in the reserved potato pot with a pinch of salt and pepper and give everything a good mix up
Add the cooled potatoes and crush them lightly with a fork
Add most of the sliced spring onion (save some for garnish!) and give everything a good mix up – this is your potato salad
Once the onion and pepper has caramelised, add the sliced steak and soy sauce to the pan and give everything a good mix up
Top with the grated cheese and cook, covered, for 2-3 min further or until the cheese has melted – this is your Philly-style cheesesteak filling
Add your baguette[s] to a baking tray and put the tray in the oven for 2-3 min or until warmed through and crusty
Slice each warmed baguette in half (without cutting all the way through), then open it out like a book and load in the steak filling
Stuff your warmed baguette with the Philly-style cheesesteak filling – this is your Philly-style cheesesteak sandwich
Serve the potato salad to the side and garnish with the remaining sliced spring onion
Enjoy!
