    Method

    1. 1

      The day before, unwrap the steak and leave it on a rack in the fridge to dry the surface.

    2. 2

      Heat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Toss the potatoes with olive oil and salt and roast 20-25 minutes.

    3. 3

      Salt the steak generously. Heat a cast-iron pan until smoking, add the oil and sear the steak 3-5 minutes a side without moving it.

    4. 4

      Add the ghee and garlic and baste for a minute, then transfer the pan to the oven for up to 10 minutes, to about 52°C (125°F) for medium-rare. Rest 10 minutes.

    5. 5

      Blend the avocado, onion, cilantro, peppers, garlic, lime, olive oil, salt and a splash of cold water until smooth. Don't over-blend.

    6. 6

      Crisp the roasted potatoes in the steak pan with a little more ghee.

    7. 7

      Cut the strip and filet off the bone, slice, and serve with the potatoes and salsa.
