Sirloin Steak
- Mix the oil, Rock Salt and American Cajun with the sirloin steak in a dish.
- Rub the steaks so that they're covered with the marinade and leave to marinate at room temp for 30 mins.
- Remove the steaks from the marinade. Drizzle oil in a frying pan and fry over medium heat according to individual taste – about 3 mins per side for medium rare.
Potatoes
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (390° F).
- Peel and cut sweet potato into 2 cm slices. Place the slices in an ovenproof dish and then drizzle over the oil, with a pinch of Rock Salt and Tellicherry Black Pepper.
- Bake for 40 mins. Remove from the oven and crumble the feta cheese over just before serving.
Sweet Corn Salsa
- Heat a frying pan over high heat and add the oil.
- Finely chop the chilli. Drain the corn and sizzle in the oil together with the chilli for 3 mins or until the corn is golden.
- Remove the mixture from the heat; add the lime juice and leave to cool. Stir in the scallions and chopped coriander. Season to taste with Rock Salt and Tellicherry Black Pepper.
