- Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Halve the potatoes lengthways. Quarter any larger pieces.
- On a lined baking tray, toss with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil. Spread out in a single layer, cut-side down.
- Roast on the top shelf of the oven, 15-20 mins.
- Remove from the oven and lightly crush each potato with the bottom of a pan. Drizzle with more oil and return to the top shelf until crispy and golden, 10-15 mins.
- Meanwhile, place a pot over medium-high heat with 2 tbsp butter (double for 4p).
- When melted, add ½ tbsp flour (double for 4p) then slowly stir in 100ml water (double for 4p).
- Bring to the boil, stirring, then simmer until thickened, 1-2 mins.
- Mix in the creme fraiche and cheese. Stir until all the cheese has melted.
- Remove from the heat, stir through the chipotle paste and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Season the sirloin with salt and pepper.
- Once the pan is hot, fry until browned, 1-2 mins each side for medium-rare.
- Cook for another 1-2 mins on each side if you want it more well-done. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat and its packaging. Meat is safe to eat when the outside is browned.
- Once cooked, transfer to a board, cover and allow to rest.
- Trim the green beans.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil if required.
- Once hot, fry the green beans until starting to char, 2-3 mins.
- Add a splash of water and immediately cover with a lid or some foil.
- Cook until tender, 4-5 mins. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Thinly slice the steaks widthways.
- Gently reheat the chipotle cheese sauce, if necessary.
- Divide the smashed potatoes between plates.
- Serve the pan-fried green beans and sliced sirloin alongside.
- Drizzle the chipotle cheese sauce over the steak.
- Serve any remaining sauce on the side.
