Ingredients

  • 2 large parsnips, peeled and coarsely chopped, about 430 g

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice

  • 1 small garlic clove, crushed

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Roasted radishes

  • 15 red radishes, ends trimmed, halved lengthwise

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Salad

  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice

  • 1 1/2 tbsp honey

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 2 watermelon radishes, thinly sliced (optional)

  • 2 cups packed arugula

  • 1 cup loosely packed micro radish, (optional)

Steak

  • 2 large T-bone steaks, at room temperature, about 600 g

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • 1/2 cup mixed chopped herbs, such as basil and mint

Instructions

  • Position rack in centre of oven, then preheat to 400F.

  • Purée: Boil a pot of water. Add parsnips. Boil until fork tender, about 30 min. Drain, then transfer to a blender. Add 2 tbsp lemon juice, garlic and ¼ tsp salt. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

  • Radishes: Toss red radishes with 2 tbsp oil and ¼ tsp salt on a baking sheet. Season with pepper. Roast until tender, 7 to 10 min.

  • Salad: Whisk ¼ cup oil with ¼ cup lemon juice, honey and ¼ tsp salt in a large bowl. Reserve 2 tbsp dressing in a small bowl. Add roasted radishes, watermelon radishes, arugula and micro radish to large bowl. Set aside.

  • Steak: Sprinkle steaks with 1/2 tsp salt. Season with pepper, then drizzle with reserved 2 tbsp dressing. Let stand 5 min. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a large cast iron pan (or another heavy frying pan) set over high. Add steak. Cook 3 min. Flip steak. Cook until steak is medium, about 3 more min. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 min, then thinly slice.

  • To serve, toss salad to combine. Serve steak alongside salad and cooled purée. Sprinkle with chopped herbs.
