Instructions

Wash produce before use

1

Cook the steaks

  • Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel; season generously with salt and pepper.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the steaks.

For top sirloins:
Cook, turning over frequently, until well browned, 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare.

For filet mignons:
Cook, turning over frequently, until well browned, 8 to 12 minutes for medium-rare.

For New York strips and rib-eyes:
Cook, turning over once, until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare.

Transfer the cooked steaks to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Cut the steaks into ½-inch-thick slices. Do not clean the pan. While the steaks rest, cook the vegetables.

2

Cook the cauliflower-mixture

In the same pan used for the steaks, if dry, add 1 to 2 teaspoons oil. Warm over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the cauliflower-mixture and tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Do not clean the pan.

3

Heat the ajvar

In the same pan used for the cauliflower, stir in the roasted red pepper ajvar and cook over medium heat until heated through, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove from the heat.

Serve

Transfer the steaks and cauliflower to individual plates. Spoon the ajvar over the steaks and serve.
