Ingredients
• 4 x 100g minute steaks
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (pimenton)
• 1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil
• 1kg chat potatoes
• 200g green beans, trimmed
• 3 chargrilled capsicums
• Pinch chilli flakes

Method
1. Rub steaks with paprika and 1 tablespoon oil, then season. Set aside.
2. Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 12-15 minutes until tender, adding beans for the final 2 minutes. Drain, quarter potatoes and set aside.
3. Meanwhile, place capsicums, chilli, vinegar, one-third of the tomato, 30g almonds and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a small food processor and whiz until a loose paste. Season to taste, then set dressing aside.
4. Preheat a chargrill or frypan over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks for 30 seconds each side or until just cooked through. Remove from the pan and rest, loosely covered with foil, for 2 minutes.
5. Toss the beans, potato and remaining tomato and almonds with the dressing and season. Divide the Romesco salad among 4 serving plates and serve with steaks.
