Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the potatoes in a large pot and add cold water to cover. Bring to a boil and add 2 teaspoons salt.
  2. Reduce heat and simmer until tender, 14 to 16 minutes. Drain, run under cold water to cool, and using a fork or your fingers, break the potatoes in half.
  3. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steaks with 1 teaspoon salt and ¾ teaspoon pepper.
  4. Cook steaks to the desired doneness, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  5. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the blue cheese, vinegar, remaining ¼ cup oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
  6. Add the potatoes and lettuce and toss to coat. Serve with the steaks.

    Turnips

    Although the turnip has been grown for more than 4,000 years and was one of the first foods to be cultivated in Europe, it is currently underappreciated: It keeps well, takes to almost any cooking method, and has a subtly flavored, tasty flesh.
