- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a large pot of salted water for the potatoes.
- Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
- When boiling, add the potatoes to the water and cook until fork tender, 12-18 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat.
- Mash until smooth. Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk or water. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces.
- Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Season the beef with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat.
- Trim the tip of the broccoli. Cut head into small florets and stem into 2cm pieces.
- Add the broccoli to a lined baking tray, drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat.
- Spread out in a single layer and roast on the middle shelf of the oven until tender, 10-15 mins.
- Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the beef until browned, 1-2 mins each side for medium-rare.
- Cook 1-2 mins more each side for medium.
- Cook for a further 1-2 mins each side for well-done.
- Remove from the pan and set aside to rest. IMPORTANT: Beef is safe to eat when browned on the outside.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Add the shallot to the pan and cook until softened, 4-5 mins. Add the garlic and cook for 30 secs.
- Add half the vinegar (double for 4p) and allow to evaporate. Add 1 tsp flour (double for 4p) and mix well.
- Stir in 100ml water (double for 4p) and the stock.
- Bring to the boil, lower heat and simmer for 1-2 mins.
- Stir through parsley and 2 tbsp butter (double for 4p). Simmer until thickened, 2-3 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide the creamy mashed potato between plates.
- Serve the roast broccoli alongside.
- Slice the beef rump and plate next to the veg.
- Finish with the garlic parsley butter sauce.
