Steak with Cheesy Polenta

Good Pair Days -
  • 1 tbsp chopped sage, plus a few extra whole leaves fried until crisp
  • 300g rump steak
  • 6 spring onions, sliced
  • 100g quick-cook polenta
  • 50g mature cheddar, grated
  • Add a glug of oil to a frying pan and when very hot, add the seasoned steak and fry for 3 mins on each side. Reduce the heat, add a little more oil and the chopped sage, then cook for 2 mins more, basting with the oil and sage as you go. Transfer the meat to a board to rest.
  • Fry the whites of the spring onions in the pan for 3 mins, then pour in 500ml boiled water and add the polenta. Whisk for 1 minute to thicken, then season well and stir in the cheese. Divide the polenta between 2 plates and top with the sliced steak. Sprinkle with the fried sage and the green parts of the spring onion, and serve.
