Jose Picayo
Serves 4 Hands-On Time: 10m Total Time: 35m

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 pound parsnips (about 2 medium), cut into 1-inch pieces
  • kosher salt and black pepper
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak (1 inch thick)

Directions

  1. Place the potatoes and parsnips in a large pot. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Add 2 teaspoons salt, reduce heat, and simmer until tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Mash with the milk, butter, scallions, 1⁄2 teaspoon salt, and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with 1⁄2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook to the desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest before slicing. Serve with the potato-parsnip mash.

Quick Tip

Grass-fed beef is lower in fat and thus cooks faster than ordinary beef. Many chefs and butchers advise cooking it at a lower temperature.
