Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cooking Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

2 red peppers, roughly chopped
1 brinjal, roughly chopped
2 T olive oil
2 T canola oil
700 g rump steak
10 g Italian parsley, roughly chopped
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
4 pita breads, toasted
hummus, for serving

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Toss the red peppers and brinjal with the olive oil, then place on a tray and roast for 30–35 minutes, or until caramelised and tender.

2. Meanwhile, heat a large pan over a high heat, then add the canola oil. Once the oil starts smoking, add the steak and cook for 3 minutes on each side, or until slightly caramelised. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

3. Toss the roast vegetables with the parsley and season to taste.

4. Assemble the pitas by stuffing them with hummus, sliced steak and roast vegetables.

Cook's note: Keep a stash of pita breads in the freezer so you always have them on hand.
