we have Steak & new pots how can you spice it up a bit?

[SpandexIsMyEnemy]

any thoughts?

was thinking a salsa type dip thingy.

DP & I are having a 'ready steady cook night!'

he's bringing the meat & potaoes n we're going to use what's in the cupboards to make a nice exotic meal!

any thoughts!

salsa verde on side - heaps of parsley, mint, garlic, couple of anchovies, capers, lemon juice, mustard, whizz in processor/hand blender

great with meat or fish

My DH does lovely crushed new potatoes, you put some olive oil (quite a lot) in with the potatoes and crush with the back of a fork and then add the herb of your choice.

Tarragon is lovely, but I'm sure something like coriander and chilli would be lovely as well.

i chop the spuds roughly, steam and then mix sour light cream with wholegrain mustard and a crushed garlic clove. Once steamed - leave potatoes to cool. Add spuds to the mix for a potato salad.

steak - I wrap in proscuitto and put in oven with huge mushrooms. cook for around 20 minutes and then serve in a stack - huge mushroom, steak on top, potato salad on side.

I do a tangy sauce with steak sometimes - sundried tomatoes, garlic and creme fraiche, all cooked in the pan after the steak somes out. It sort of depends what you have in your fridge and cupboards though

was thinking about that mum - sort of a tangy salsa thing.

don't have creme fresh but do have the rest plus chilli's garlic etc etc. oh and some fab zangy oilve oil type thingy.

thanks trix will give that a try.
