Ingredients

For the parsley pesto

Method

  • STEP 1

    Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put all the vegetables, except the chicory and celery leaves, in a large, non-stick roasting tin. Pour over 2 tbsp olive oil and season. Mix everything and spread into a single layer. Bake for around 45 mins, tossing once or twice, until the vegetables are tender and beginning to turn golden.

  • STEP 2

    Meanwhile, make the pesto. Pop the parsley, cashew nuts and garlic in a food processor. Blitz until quite smooth. Stir in the olive oil, lemon juice, Parmesan and some seasoning. Adjust the thickness with a little more olive oil, if you like.

  • STEP 3

    Heat a griddle pan. Rub the steaks with the remaining oil and season. Cook on each side for around 4 mins for medium, or to your liking, adjusting the time depending on the thickness of the steaks. Rest the steaks, covered, for 5 mins.

  • STEP 4

    Toss the chicory and celery leaves together with roasted roots. Serve alongside the steaks and spoon a generous dollop of pesto on top.
