Method

Ingredients

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Bake the sweet potatoes until tender and cooked through.
2. Tear each potato apart, drizzle with the olive oil and honey and toss to coat. Drizzle over the red wine vinegar, season and bake again until very caramelised and sticky.
3. To make the mushroom sauce, pan-fry the mushrooms in the olive oil in batches in a very hot pan until golden. Season. Return all the mushrooms to the pan, reduce the heat to medium and add the sherry vinegar. Deglaze the pan for a minute.
4. Add the butter and thyme and fry for a further minute, then add the cream. Simmer for 10 minutes until reduced and silky.
5. Serve the steaks with the mushroom sauce, salsa verde and sweet potatoes.
