Seared steak with white beans and watercress

Ingredients

  1. 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
  2. 1 garlic clove, crushed
  3. Pinch of sugar
  4. 2 tsp grainy mustard
  5. 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  6. 400g can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  7. 400g can butter beans, drained and rinsed
  8. ½ red onion, finely chopped
  9. 2 large tomatoes, roughly chopped
  10. 8 x 100g rump steaks
  11. 1 tbsp olive oil
  12. 2 handfuls watercress

Method

  1. 1. Whisk together the white wine vinegar, garlic, sugar, mustard and extra-virgin olive oil in a small saucepan. Add the beans, place over a low heat and gently warm through for a minute. Transfer to a salad bowl with the red onion and tomatoes, season well and set aside.
  2. 2. Heat a griddle or frying pan over a high heat. Brush each steak with olive oil on both sides, season, then cook for 1-2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest for 2 minutes. Stir the watercress into the beans and serve with the steaks.
