Beef Fillet with Walnut Pesto

Preparation time: 20 minutes

Cooking time: 5 minutes

Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 2 pieces of beef fillet, about 200g (7oz) each
• salt and freshly ground black pepper
• steamed new potatoes, to serve

For the Pesto

• 50g (13/4oz) toasted walnuts
• 3 tablespoons chopped mixed herbs (such as coriander, parsley and basil)
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons garlic-infused
• olive oil

Method

Heat a griddle pan or a heavy-based frying pan. Season the meat with salt and pepper, add it to the pan and cook over high heat for 2 minutes on each side or until cooked to your liking.

Meanwhile, make the pesto. Put all the ingredients into the bowl of a food processor or blender and process until combined but still textured.

Serve the cooked steaks with the sauce spooned on top, with steamed new potatoes alongside.
