Method
For the rump steaks & chimichurri sauce:
- Coat the steaks with oil and season with salt, then cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
- Remove any excess salt with kitchen paper, then cook the steaks in a griddle pan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side for a medium steak. (Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the steak and your desired level of cooking).
- For the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a jam jar and shake well to mix. Transfer to a pouring jug when ready to serve.
For the corn on the cobs:
- Boil the corn cobs for 10 minutes, then pat dry and place on a baking sheet until cool enough to handle. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan/gas mark 4.
- In a bowl, combine the oil, butter, garlic, coriander and lime to form a smooth paste. Rub this mixture evenly over each corn cob and cook for 20 minutes, turning halfway through.
- Serve with lime wedges.
For the coleslaw:
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced cabbage, carrots, onion and fennel.
- In a small bowl, combine the mayo, oil, mustard, lemon juice and seasoning. Stir to mix well. Just before serving, pour the dressing over the slaw and toss to coat evenly.
