IngredientsPreheat the oven to 180°C.

Transfer to the oven and roast for 5 minutes. Season with pepper and wrap in foil, then leave to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
To serve: Cut each steak in half and plate with portions of pasta and butternut mash on the side. Drizzle the steaks and pasta with olive oil and sprinkle the pasta with the Parmesan. Garnish with wild rocket.
